The Full Amma Tell Me Series: Ten Book Set

This series of books is a beautifully illustrated version of Hindu gods and goddesses exploits. It tells the stories via a grandmother sharing with her grandchildren these vivid stories. Also has a book for each of major Hindu holidays. Quite lovely boxed set.

Why they had to be written in poetical format is beyond me, when clearly the author has zero talent for poetry.I embellish as I read and paraphrase 90 percent of the stories.Meh. If you find something better give this series a skip.

Great books.Definitely recommend it for kids.

While the book, illustrations etc will capture children's imagination but some of the language feels very outdated for the current times. All pratagonists are male, and female characters like Parvati , Sita are shown as weaklings. Even language used is insensitive , mentions of fair baby, beautiful woman and brave man etc. Best to avoid the book for young children since it reinforces stereotypes

Bought it for My 4 yr old. Language is tough for him. Heavy words used throughout. Also lot of violence, could have been managed better. The shlokas are written incorrectly.

This series is perfect read to ones grandchild in order to bring awareness of our rich and diverse culture, instilling and building foundation to right values. Very well illustrated.

beautiful books, amazing quality, some issues with packing, not enough bubble wrap, and not enough follow up on this. However th books are absolutely beautiful

The the book case was torn and received 2 books of each story rather than the entire series.
