(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Rahul Bhushan. Mughal emperor Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal as a tomb for his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal and a monument to their enduring love. Layering history, politics, architecture, and legend atop the fictionalized love story, the text can be hard to follow. Meticulously rendered miniature paintings framed by gold embossed papers lend cultural authenticity. Extensive back matter is included. Bib.
