Overview

We have all heard the tales of Hanuman-the monkey god who dared to pluck the sun from the sky and put it in his mouth. A loyal follower of Lord Rama, a fierce friend of the Kishkindha monkeys, and a valiant hero who could give his life for friends and family, Hanuman is loved and revered by many in the subcontinent. This evocative and lyrical story showcases brave Hanuman in a new light. From the marriage of his parents-Pavana, the god of winds, and Anjana, the daughter of the Earth-and his childhood days, to his meeting with the vanaras of Kishkindha and his journey with Rama to Lanka to vanquish the demon king Ravana, this is a story of valour, strength and loyalty. With each episode in his life, be it his first meetings with Rama, Lakshmana, Sita-and Mother Earth; or battling with crocodiles and flying across land and sea to acquire the Herb of Healing, see Hanuman grow to become the god he was always meant to be. Dhan Gopal Mukherji was one of the finest writers from India in the twentieth century and renowned internationally for his beautiful stories for younger readers. Hanuman the Hero is not just a retelling that will entertain children, it is a fresh take on Indian culture which will delight a new generation.
