How had Binya got the blue umbrella?

Ruskin Bond (b. 1934) is an Indian author of children’s books. He did his schooling from  Bishop Cotton School in Shimla. After completing his high school education, he went to  United Kingdom for further studies. While in UK, and still only 17 years old, he began to write  his first novel The Room on the Roof. Published in the year 1956, the novel won the John  Llewellyn Rhys Memorial Prize in 1957. Bond used the advance from the novel to pay for his  sea voyage back to India, where he settled down in Dehradun. Some of his most acclaimed  works include Time Stops at Shamli (1989), The Ruskin Bond Children’s Omnibus (1995), Crazy  Times with Uncle Ken (2011) and Tigers for Dinner: Tall Tales by Jim Corbett ’s Khansama (2013).  In 1992, he won the Sahitya Akademi Award for his collection of essays Our Trees Still Grow in  Dehra (1991). Today, he is the most famous author in India and lives in Landour, Mussoorie. Binya’s Blue Umbrella is an extract from Bond’s novel The Blue Umbrella (1980). Most of  Bond’s works is set in the mountains. He is inspired by the beauty and innocence of the  mountain life, a reason why he decided to settle down first in Dehradun and later in Landour.  Bond weaves his stories around the simplest of things in life. In 2005, the Indian film-maker,  Vishal Bhardwaj, adapted The Blue Umbrella into a film. It won the National Film Award for  Best Children’s Film in 2007.
