From the eagle brothers Jatayu and Sampati on their Himalayan crag to Draupadi and the great game of dice, these short tales retell Indian legend and history for young readers. Samyukta chooses her own husband, an archer teaches himself his art, and a woman ruler of Delhi rides disguised as a man.

Simple, dignified retellings by the first woman to study law at Oxford. Download the free EPUB.
