Description
What better a character to introduce children to Hindu mythology than Ganesha, the god of new beginnings? These stories deliver up a pantheon of Hindu deities. Shiva and Parvati, Vishu, Brahma, and Ganga are here, along with assorted rishi (wise men) and royalty. The tales support such concepts as nonviolence, respect for life, and the folly of vanity, but all are also pure entertainment in their own right.
