Enter the magical and exotic world of the Indian goddesses...

Amrita and the Goddess Lakshmi: Hanuman the Monkey God takes Amrita into the story of Diwali to see Prince Rama tricked and Princess Sita kidnapped by the terrifying Lord of the Demons. Amrita will then witness the most terrifying battle on earth... Anil and Kiki and the Goddess Durga: When their cousin Durga comes to stay, Anil and Kiki find her a bit unusual. Strangely, she seems to know what's going on in their minds. But when trouble threatens, Durga turns out to be a very useful person to know...
