The Mahabharata is one of the oldest and greatest epics of the world, comprising several stories and characters, adventures and battles, gods, demons, kings and queens, woven into a complex tapestry. This series of ten short books especially designed for young children takes up a skein, unravels it with dexterous simplicity, bringing to the child a glimpse of mythology without losing any of its magic and power.
 
Brightly illustrated, these slim books of sixty eight pages each will be a delight even to a child who is too young to read by herself, awakening her interest and encouraging her to try. Each book is complete in itself so far as it revolves around a particular event or a story, and focuses on values that last a lifetime.
