The Broken Tusk: Stories of the Hindu God Ganesha

Without tarnishing the magic of these tales, Uma Krishnaswami retells many stories of the Hindu God Ganesha in a concise manner. These stories may be read as standalone tales or as a whole for enjoyment and education.

Nice read because each chapter was a different story. I learned a lot about Ganesha by these stories because each one explained something different about him. There were a few pictures included. Also included was a glossary, and list of some of Ganeshas other names.
