Description:

Long, long ago, the mighty demon king Hiranyakashipu had grown so powerful that he believed himself a god, and demanded that everyone in his kingdom worship him. But his own little son Prahlad refused. Quiet, kind, and utterly devoted to Lord Vishnu, the brave young boy held fast to his faith no matter how cruelly his father raged or threatened him. As Hiranyakashipu's punishments grew darker and darker, Lord Vishnu prepared to descend to earth once more — this time in his fourth and most fearsome form: Narasimha, the magnificent half-lion, half-man avatar. Brought wonderfully to life through Bhakti Mathur's lilting rhyming verse and Maulshree Somani's rich, colourful illustrations, this charming addition to the much-loved Amma Tell Me series shares an ancient story of unshakable devotion, the triumph of good over evil, and the unfailing protection of the divine.
