Ever wondered about time? Follow Aru Shaw, the pandava of her generation. The pandavas are suppose to be famous in Hindu mythology. They each like different things. For example Arjuna likes to battle. Their soul gets passed down from generation to generation. There is this lamp that is cursed. If you light it then an evil demon comes out. Aru is usually a liar so her classmates don't believe her when she says that the lamp is cursed. They dare her to light the lamp. Just one quick light and I will blow it out, she thinks. But, lighting the lamp has bad consequences. She apparently releases the Sleeper. The Sleeper plans to wake up Lord Shiva( the god of destruction) and destroy the world. Aru meets this other pandava named Mini. They soon figure out that Aru is the daughter of Lord Indra( the god of gods) and Mini is the daughter of Dharma Raja( the god of death). The keys unlock an entrance to the Kingdom of Death without dying. They have to get into the Kingdom of Death to know how to stop the sleeper. Follow Aru and Mini's adventure to save the world and a quest for the three keys!
This book was very exciting! It also has a lot of Hindu mythology. It can teach a lot about culture. It was also very informational. I would recommend this book for grades 3 and up. I think you should read this book!
