520			_aPrince Yudhishtir who gets his dead brothers back from an enchanted pool, King Trishanku who desired to go to heaven while he was still alive, and the Monkey God Hanuman who learns a lesson in humility. Curious, aren’t you? These stories and many more form the heart of the Puranas and Itihaas, among the oldest written Hindu texts. Daaji’s keen curatorial selection brings an array of ancient tales of adventure, quests and wisdom. He engages with the narratives and simplifies the ancient wisdom to make it understandable and at the same time feed the imagination of children and set them on a path to self-discovery.
