Stories and Art: Hanuman Moves the Mountain.

This is one of my very favorite stories! It’s just a small piece from the great Indian epic “Ramayana.” It’s one of the most famous stories of all time, and it takes about twenty-four hours to tell the whole thing. Barack Obama says he loved this story when he was a little boy.
