Vivid dramas--featuring gods, goddesses, kings, sages, and fools--have been selected from ancient Hindu epics, myths, and folk traditions across India. Sarah Conover, Abhi Janamanchi, and illustrator Shanthi Chandrasekar bring to life the sights, sounds, tastes, and smells of the land and people of Southern India, creating a captivating collection. The stories themselves convey key values, such as honesty, generosity, and justice but also introduce readers to unique religious and cultural observances.
