The first book in a series on Hanuman,
The god that Amma likes best.
The trouble he got into as a baby,
Trying to gobble up the sun for breakfast.
Born in the being of the Wind god,
Blessed with mighty Shiva's divinity,
The story of the hard lesson that he learned:
That great power comes with great responsibility.
