Summary

"A vivid and unusual tale of one of the most beautiful spots in the world--the Vale of Kashmir set in the mountainous region of northwestern India. A little lame boy named Rhamon unexpectedly finds favor with the Rajah of Kashmiri, with the result that the boy's life becomes much more interesting. The different and unusual customs of the Kashmiri people--life on a houseboat, a floating garden, flowers growing on treetops--all will be of particular interest to boys and girls of nine and ten."
