維克拉姆，β1的故事是印度王的民間故事 - 好讀的孩子

Vikram And Betal stories is based on Betal Pacchisi, written nearly 2,500 years ago by Mahakavi Somdev Bhatt in Sanskrit. These stories have been an integral part of Indian fairy tales for many centuries. Legend has it that King Vikram (Vikramaditya), the emperor of Ujjain promises a monk to bring Betal, the vampire as a favour promised to him. The condition is that the king should bring the vampire in complete silence, lest Betal, the vampire will fly back to its abode. As soon as Vikram attempts to fetch the vampire Betal, the vampire starts to narrate a story. And at the end of every story it compels king Vikram to solve the puzzle of the story, thus breaking his silence. The stories thus narrated by Betal, the Vampire forms an interesting series of fairy tales. There are twenty five such stories.

All these stories have a trick question at the end which compel children to think and participate thus making stories interactive.
