Three Indian Goddesses by Jamila Gavin
Enter the magical and exotic world of the Indian goddesses… Three contemporary stories inspired by Hindu tales Shanta and the Goddess Kali: Shanta is chosen to dance for the gods at the temple by the sea. It's a great honour, but Shanta is terrified – the goddess Kali has put a terrible curse on the temple... Amrita and the Goddess Lakshmi: Hanuman the Monkey God takes Amrita into the story of Diwali to see Prince Rama tricked and Princess Sita kidnapped by the terrifying Lord of the Demons. Amrita will then witness the most terrifying battle on earth... Anil and Kiki and the Goddess Durga: When their cousin Durga comes to stay, Anil and Kiki find her a bit unusual. Strangely, she seems to know what's going on in their minds. But when trouble threatens, Durga turns out to be a very useful person to know...
