The epics and scriptures of India, retold gently with your child as the hero who helps, listens and learns beside Rama, Arjuna, Hanuman and the rishis. Pick a scripture, choose a story idea, add a photo, and the illustrated book starts right away.

Rama, Sita, Lakshman and Hanuman: the forest years, the squirrel's bridge and the lamps of Ayodhya.

Arjuna's aim, Bhima's strength, Krishna's wisdom and the great field of Kurukshetra.

Krishna's gentle lessons for a worried Arjuna: do your duty, try your best, let go of the result.

The joyful leap, the mountain of herbs and a friend whose strength comes from love.

The oldest songs of India: the sun, the rain, the rivers and the fire that carries every wish.

Sit-close-and-listen stories: Nachiketa's questions, Satyakama's honesty and the seed inside the banyan.

Little Krishna in Gokul and Vrindavan: stolen butter, a flute by the river, Kaliya's hood and a hill held on one finger.

The elephant-headed remover of obstacles: turmeric and a doorway, a race around the parents, a broken tusk and a very small mouse.

A cosy family on snowy Kailash: Nandi at the gate, Ganga in Shiva's hair, a damaru beat and Parvati's patient tapasya.

The mother goddess on her lion: nine forms, a bully faced with courage, dhunuchi smoke and sindoor in the pandals of Kolkata.

The Buddha's birth stories: a monkey king who became a bridge, a hare in the moon, a golden goose and a banyan deer who stood for all.

Sakhis of Guru Nanak: the true bargain, Bhai Lalo's honest bread, Mardana's rabab, the boulder at Panja Sahib and a langar where all sit as one.

A small prince who would not stop saying his prayer: Holika's fire, a talking pillar, and the lion-faced protector who came at dusk.
Ten rescues across the ages: a fish who warned of the flood, a tortoise under the mountain, a boar who lifted the earth and a dwarf who took three steps.
