This is a beautifully illustrated, accessible Ramayana story for all readers. Because it is abridged, the action occasionally feels abrupt, but the reader can enjoy the personalities of bold Rama, his brother, loyal Lakshman, benevolent and faithful Sita, and the devoted and charming Hanuman, as well as the evil 10-headed, 20-armed, red-eyed Demon-king, Ravana as they enact the time-honored battle between good and evil. Framing introductory and concluding sections featuring the narrator Hanuman as a tag sale plush monkey need a little post-colonial unpacking. Nonetheless, highly recommended.

An exciting children's retelling of the epic story known in different versions throughout India and south-east Asia as The Ramayana. Rama marries beautiful Sita, but Ravana, the 10-headed, 20-armed Demon King, falls in love with her too. He captures her and takes her in his chariot to the Demon Kingdom, Lanka. Rama has to find a way to rescue Sita, and he seeks the help of the monkey general Hanuman and the King of the Bears, and Jambuvan, the King of the Bears. Rama, his brother Lakshman and the band of monkeys and bears battle their way to the Kingdom of the Demons. They cross the sea by building a bridge, with the help of the fishes and sea creatures, and find Sita locked in Hanuman's tower, guarded by demonesses. After a final, terrible battle, the Demon King is defeated and Rama and Sita are reunited. The beautiful end to the story, telling how people put out lamps to light Rama and Sita's pathway home, is at the heart of the Hindu festival of Divali. in which earthen lamps - called divas - are lit, to celebrate the return of Rama after his exile and to mark the end of one year and the beginning of another.
