For the first time, all seven volumes of Valmiki’s Ramayana are retold in English for young readers by Paro Anand – one of India’s most acclaimed children’s writers.
In this opening volume, Ayodhya is at peace and four princes are growing up. But beyond the palace walls, Rama hunts demons in ancient forests, befriends legendary sages and breaks a bow no man could move. Elsewhere, a king tries to reach heaven in his living body, and a girl found in a furrow of earth is already destined to change the world. Battles, boons, curses, and magic – one of the greatest adventures ever told starts here.
