Reading Notes: Mahabharata Part A

 Bibliography: Tiny Tales from the Mahabharata by Laura Gibbs

Holy family tree flow chart batman!

Satyavati has a lot going on - being born from a fish, secret kids. I'm getting a very drama/reality TV vibe from this so far and it's amazing. From Satyavati in a way we actually get the Mahabharata because of Vyasa. Vyasa has a lot going on too - the making kids out of lumps in pots in also amazing and I love it. 

Focus may be on Vyasa coming from Satyavati - could do a brief intro on her as well since she has great backstory - and then things about Vyasa. The kids, the composing of the Mahabharata and the visiting the widows. Snippets to make up a fun tale of Vyasa. :)
