Who is the writer of the Happy Prince story?
A
Khushwant Singh
B
R.K. Laxman
C
Oscar Wilde
D
Ruskin Bond
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It is often said that Oscar Wilde wrote The Happy Prince for his children, but I have my doubts. Wilde first told the story to a group of Cambridge students and read it to his son later, but rather than reaching out to children, the tale remains firmly entrenched in an embittered adult world.

Detailed explanation-2: -Wilde published two collections of tales: The Happy Prince and Other Tales in 1888 and A House of Pomegranates in 1891.
