For this reading diary I want to focus on the character
Hanuman. Just because if I decide to do my storybook project over Hanuman I
might find some details here that I could use later.
First off Hanuman shape-shifts to a giant version of himself
to cross the ocean, he then shrinks once he has arrived at Lanka. He finds Sita
in the pleasure garden being guarded by demons. He gives her Ramas ring so that
she knows, he has been sent by Rama himself. Hanuman is then captured by
Ravanas son…which is pretty clever because he will be brought to Ravana at some
point. Ravana ends up setting Hanumans tail on fire then Hanuman burns Lanka to
the ground.

Ravana is upset he was attacked by a Hanuman. He
contemplates several fates for the monkey and Rama. He sends Vibhishana to Rama.
Rama builds a bridge across the see. Meanwhile Ravana tries to trick Sita with
images of what looks to be Ramas decapitated head. After several battles Ravana
is dead. Because Sita has spent time with demons Rama tests Sita to see if she
has been affected by them. Rama is no longer
exiled!
I am really starting to think that Hanuman is an even better
topic then I first thought. After reading this part of the story! I am already
imagining the adventures and internal monologues that could take place. I want more to read!
