About this bookA clear overview of the title

Stories of Kṛṣṇa, by Pārvatī Devī Dāsī, introduces children to their Supreme Friend. Adapted from Śrīla Prabhupāda’s Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the pastimes recounted in this book give children a glimpse into the fascinating life of Śrī Kṛṣṇa and His associates in Vṛndāvana. Hear about Kṛṣṇa’s boyish butter-stealing games, his cowherding adventures with His many friends, and how He protected the residents of Vṛndāvana from the various demons sent by Kaṁsa. Volume 1 begins with Kṛṣṇa’s appearance in the world, in chapter 1, up through the gopīs’ expressing their feelings of separation from Him, in chapter 20.

This is the first of four volumes.

Author information

Pārvatī Devī Dāsī

Pārvatī Devī Dāsī first came in contact with Kṛṣṇa consciousness in San Francisco in 1968, attracted by the street chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra. She later joined ISKCON in Colorado, but soon moved to the Los Angeles temple, then later to Kenya, and then on to Mumbai, India. For the last eighteen years of her life she served selflessly as the manager of Srila Prabhupāda's Samadhi Mandir in Vṛndāvana.
