The Queen Who Ruled the Waves and Other Amazing Tales of Indian Royalty

By   Indira Ananthakrishnan

Age Group: 9 - 12 Years, 12+ Years

Description: Meet India's trailblazing royals who shattered stereotypes: a musical king penning 400+ soulful songs, a devoted princess shadowing her temple idol to eternity, emperors taming cheetahs and pampering pet zebras. Fearless queens like sea-conquering Abbakka, warrior Durgavati, and rebel Velu Nachiyar crushed invaders on land and waves, while visionaries Krishnadevaraya and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj built empires of art and justice. Kattabomman defied colonizers, Shantala dazzled as dancer-administrator, Mahendravarman sculpted temples and verses. Through 15 spellbinding stories, wander gilded courts, stormy battlefields, and opulent palaces. Charming illustrations bring these multifaceted legends—warriors, poets, builders, foodies—to vivid life, revealing how extraordinary rulers among hundreds forged India's timeless legacy.
