Review: Hanuman's Ramayana by Devdutt Pattnaik, Art by Nancy Raj.








Book: Hanuman's Ramayana

Author: Devdutt Pattnaik

Illustrator: Nancy Raj

Pages: 30

How Long It Took Me To Read: 30 minutes...

Plot Summary: A little anecdote about Valmiki and how his version of the Ramayana came to be the one that the rest of the world reads and loves.

Review: This book was just delightful. A lovely, lovely little book full of wonderful art and sweet little episode from an epic.

I didn't know about this little story, it perhaps comes from from a folktale. So it was a brand new tale for me and I absolutely loved it. Loved it!! It was simple, sweet and had such a profound message.

It's meant to be children's story but I enjoyed it and was blown way by the gorgeous Maithili art.

Rating: 5/5
