Krishna and Sudama

What do you bring to a friend who has everything?

Krishna and Sudama were the closest of friends as boys in the gurukula. Years later, Krishna is the king of golden Dvaraka, and Sudama is a poor brahmana whose children often go hungry. When his wife sends him to visit his old friend, all he has to bring is a handful of poha tied in an old cloth. But the moment Krishna hears his name, the king runs barefoot to embrace him, seats him on his own royal bed, and washes his tired feet with his own hands.

A tender, beautifully illustrated retelling about a friendship that never counted who had what. Includes a Parent Notes page tracing the story to the Bhagavata Purana, talking points, and a pronunciation guide.

From the Sanatan Bhumi · Gurukul imprint, Bharat-rooted, parampara-respectful, never preachy.
