The village of Deogarh in India was brought to life at Ottakers bookshop in Aberdeen when children heard the story of Ganesh the elephant god and an abridged version of the epic Indian poem, 'Ramayana', and made masks and puppets. The girls received a bindi dot. Sukanya Basu read to Adam Ingram, six (left), and Bailey Gwynne, five, entertained by a 'tiger', played by Andi Ma. Spokeswoman Amy Nimegeer said, 'It is a way of children learning about another culture while raising some money for children their own age.' Aberdeen Photo Paul Reid
