A charmingly illustrated flipbook edition of two great Indian epics The country's favourite mythologist, Devdutt Pattanaik, empowers and entertains with a double bill of the Ramayana and the Mahabharata for a whole new generation of readers. Flip the book and look at the epics in a brand new light. A BOOK ABOUT CONSENT AND CHOOSING RESPONSIBLY The Ramayana, the ancient tale of Ram and Ravana, is one that has been reinterpreted in myriad ways exalting the virtues of the princes. Few notice, however, that the story is actually led by the girl who chose, Sita. A BOOK ABOUT HANDLING BULLIES AND BEING HUMBLE The Mahabharata is the tale of the five Pandavas and their cousins, the hundred Kauravas, who threw out family morals. Instead of taking care of their five orphaned cousins, the princes burnt their house, abused their wife and stole their kingdom. This is the saga of the boys who fought, not for revenge but for dharma.
