The first book read by me of the great author was 'Room On The Roof' when it was prescribed as a compulsory novel in class 10. It also happens to be his first novel. Leaving aside his childrens writing, I have read his short stories and other novels but somehow still like 'Room On The Roof' as the best.
I have has the good fortune to get his autographs on one of his newly launched book a few years back. Aditya, my son, has been prescribed with one of Ruskin's Children stories book in his school. When I showed him the autographed book by Ruskin Bond he was quite surprised as maybe he never expected to see the real autograph of the author.
Wikipedia has lot of information about the author and the same can be read at >>

I hope I will be able to meet the author some day soon...or maybe I should take a trip to Dehra (Dehradoon) to find him..
