Reading Diary B: The Sons of Rama

For Reading Diary B for this week I decided to read another comic book. This one is by Amar Chitra Katha and is called “The Sons of Rama.” In this story Sita is exiled when she is pregnant. She has two sons named Luv and Kush. They grow up without there father and are taught of all of his accomplishments by Valmiki. Later in the story, Rama is performing Aswamedha, which is a sacrificial ritual that will bring his kingdom good fortune. After he sends out the horse and his sons capture it. He sends his brothers and an army after it to get it back. Each group was defeated. Rama then learns that these are his sons. I think it would be cool if Rama actually went out to capture his horse. Then him and his children could do battle. I also might end the story with the sons staying with their mother.

Here is an image of the comic book I read:
