Mahabharata: The Birth of Bhagavad Gita Hardcover – 1 Jan. 2010

I had enjoyed this set as a child nearly 25 years ago when it was released as chapter book by Uncle Pai of ACK. I bought this set for my 10 year old daughter to introduce her to one of the greatest epic to be ever written. My kids have enjoyed learning about Indian mythology through ACK books.The set comes with 3 big volumes of:1. The Kuru Princes2. Pandavas in Exile3. On the battlefield of KurukshtraEach volume is a heavy book and covers all the important details of the epic. The books are well illustrated and presented but kept simple for the kids to enjoy. The set is recommended for 10-15 years depending on the interest of the child. It is also recommended for adults if they have not read the epic before. Each book is divided into chapters and will make a good bedtime read (for several months).Mahabharatha is an extensive and exhaustive saga of emotions, characters, situations and emotions. There is no human emotion or character that exists that has not been described in the epic. This set is a starting point to explore the other books/characters mentioned in this epic, all available in ACK. Each chapter can be further discussed to understand the moral of the story, emotions of the characters, understanding of the behaviour etc.It is a beautiful set of book, well presented, colourful front cover, the usual high standards of ACK and a good gift to any youngster, specially of Indian origin.
