The Jai Jais Legends Series: The Ramayana

The Ramayana, the epic story of Lord Rama through his trials and tribulations, has inspired millions over the centuries. Originally written in Sanskrit by the sage Valmiki, the Ramayana teaches us about dharma (duty and righteousness), devotion, hope, bravery, respect, confidence, and togetherness, among countless other qualities. The Jai Jais’ rendition of Valmiki’s epic Ramayana is a retelling in English for children, simplified to teach them about this wonderful story. Join Lord Rama and his companion Hanuman as they search for Sita after being captured by the evil demon King Ravana. A great simplified version to teach children of all diversities about this wonderful story. The illustrator has created the imagery in a modern and mystical way to engage older children. The story has been written by Sunita Shah and Rishi Handa who has a background in education and teaching children. They have brought their background knowledge and skills to this adaptation of the Ramayana for children of all diversities to enjoy.
