Join the siblings Klaka and Kiki as they celebrate Rakhi with their sister Maya and hear Amma narrates the stories behind the festival - of what Lakshmi had to do to get her husband back, of how Indra emerged victorious after nearly losing a battle and how Rabindranath Tagore foiled a well laid plan of the British empire. For ages 2 to 8. Amma Tell Me is a charming and informative series of children's books that introduces the major Hindu festivals and figures to young readers and are perfect for families wanting to share stories of Hinduism with their children or for educators looking for resources on Hindu culture for their students. Written in rhyme with vivid, captivating illustrations, this series brings Hindu mythology to its readers in a fun and non-preachy way. The Series has fourteen books.  .
