Vishnu
Dashavatar is a collection of ten spell-binding stories for children. In each of the tales, the world is on the brink of collapse, when Vishnu decides to rescue it. He takes on many forms, sometimes splendorous, at other times humble.
From Matsya avatar, where Vishnu assumes the shape of a fish, to Vamana avatar, where he shrinks in size, to Krishna avatar, where he becomes the Blue one, each of the stories speaks of Vishnu’s benevolence and the triumph of good over evil.
