Hanuman Crosses the Ocean

The strongest one of all was the greatest helper of all.

Mata Sita is held captive across a hundred yojanas of endless ocean, and Rama's heart is breaking. Who can possibly cross such a sea? Hanuman can, but first he has to remember how mighty he truly is. With a friend's reminder, he grows as tall as a mountain and leaps into the sky, soaring over the waves, courteous to the golden mountain that offers him rest, clever with the sea-being who blocks his path, all to bring one grieving heart a single word of hope: Rama is coming.

A bright, joyful, epic retelling from the beloved Sundara Kanda of the Ramayana, with a Parent Notes page, talking points, and a pronunciation guide.
