About this title

Synopsis

In a distant kingdom, two young princes-Victor and Otto-grow up as best friends and playful rivals. But as they get older, their competition grows fierce, eventually turning friendship into bitter conflict. One prince seizes the throne, the other is locked away in a dungeon, and fear and suspicion spread across the land.

Everything begins to change when a brave child enters the castle and dares to ask questions no one else will. Through honesty, courage, and the magic of a mysterious lantern, the child guides the two brothers toward forgiveness and reconciliation.

Friends and Rivals is a touching bilingual English-Hindi picture book about sibling bonds, conflict, power, and the healing force of understanding. With its richly detailed illustrations by Iva Dukic and Tuula Pere's emotionally resonant storytelling, this book helps young readers explore themes of empathy, peace-making, and the importance of communication.

This bilingual edition supports language learning and is ideal for multilingual families, schools, and libraries.
