Summary Of The Book Tales Of Hanuman (3 In 1), published in 1994 by Amar Chitra Katha, consists of three books. This set has been designed for 9 to 14 year old children, and presents Hanuman’s life in animated form. Hanuman is the first book of the Tales Of Hanuman (3 In 1). Readers will get to know that Hanuman played an important role in helping Lord Rama win the war against the demon king Ravana. This book illustrates how he was given the responsibility of going to Lanka to deliver a message from Rama to Sita. Hanuman highlights the protagonist's immense strength, humility, and his devotion to Rama. Hanuman to the Rescue shows how Rama’s brother was dying after being injured in warfare. The only way to save his life was to feed him sanjeevani, a life giving herb. This magic plant grew in a mountain forest very far away, and so Hanuman decided to go in search for it. When he returned, he brought with himself the entire mountain on which this medicinal plant grew. The last comicbook of the Tales Of Hanuman (3 In 1) is titled Bheema and Hanuman. Bheema, the second Pandava, was a man of enormous physical strength. While the Pandavas lived in the forest during their exile, Draupadi longed for a particular kind of flower. Bheema decided to go to the mountain on which this flower grows, and defeated an elephant on his way. Much to his surprise, when he met Hanuman, he couldn't lift Hanuman’s tail. Tales Of Hanuman (3 In 1) is a wonderful collection of animated books for kids. These are entertaining, informative, and great fun to read.
