Product Description

Reviews
"Strength, action, vigour, expressivenes all shine through. This wonderful story is given full measure within the book's short compass and I recommend it confidently." (School Librarian)

"An action-packed chunk of the Ramayana traditionally told at Diwali, with eye-poping illustrations in the style of shadow puppets. What more could you want?" (Times Educational Supplement) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Synopsis
The three-thousand-year-old tale of Rama, who rescues his wife, Sita, from the Demon King, is said to confer a blessing on all who hear it. In Rama and the Demon King, this glorious myth is retold, so that children of all cultures can enjoy the thrilling story. The vibrant illustrations, based on the ancient tradition of shadow-puppetry, convey all the exuberance of a tale which, although centuries old, is still very much alive.
