We will be reading Aru Shah and the End of Time by Roshani Chokshi this month.
Best-selling author Rick Riordan introduces this adventure about 12-year-old Aru Shah, who has a tendency to stretch the truth in order to fit in at school. While her classmates are jetting off to family vacations in exotic locales, she'll be spending her autumn break at home, in the Museum of Ancient Indian Art and Culture, waiting for her mom to return from her latest archeological trip. Is it any wonder that Aru makes up stories about being royalty, traveling to Paris, and having a chauffeur? Hindu mythology comes to life in modern times as a lonely 12-year-old girl accidentally unleashes a fearsome demon.
