  Ramayana has a simple story line and yet imparts profound values through its characters. Values of Duty, Respect, Love, Sharing, Humility, Friendship, Truth and Bravery are sought to be put across to children while giving them glimpses of the ideal human being. The work- book has cross- word and puzzles designed according to the Kanda (chapters) of Ramayana. It introduces the value the characters stand for in this fun manner. |
 Mahabahrata is one of the noblest literary works of India. It has moulded the character and civilisation of our Nation. Even though the Mahabharata is a poem that was written thousands of years ago, it is pertinent even today with its lessons of life. Every character in the story teaches us the role of Dharma. This epic story teaches us how to resolve conflicts and choose the right path when at cross-roads, gives us the lesson that hatred breeds hatred, that covetousness and violence lead inevitably to ruin and that the only real conquest is in the battle against one’s lower self. The work- book is designed according to the Parvas ( chapters) . A bird- eye ciew of the whole story and important character is given through fun word puzzles and activities. |
 Bhagavatha has many allegorical stories which fascinate the child and adult alike. While the characters fire the imagination of the child, the allegories make the adult contemplate. Short stories from the Bhagavatha which are a must know for every Indian have been selected in Bhagavatha I , while the ever-popular Krishna stories are in Bhagavatha- II |
