Shakti

written by SJ Sindu ; illustrated by Nabi H Ali
Book - 2023

Twelve-year-old Shakti is no stranger to being the new girl at school, but she hopes the move with her two moms and her unborn baby brother to Amherst, Massachusetts, will finally be the place they can truly call home. On the first day of seventh grade, Shakti befriends Xi but also makes enemies with the meanest girls in school: Harini, Emily, and Kelly. When she and Xi find the trio casting spells in the woods, Shakti turns to ancient Indian magic to protect her new home. But when she tries to get help from Durga Ma, Shakti accidentally conjures Kali Ma, the Destroyer and Durga Ma's dangerous twin, who turns Harini, Emily, and Kelly into monsters and curses Amherst. It's up to Shakti and Xi to save the day, but Shakti must find a way to let go of her anger towards the girls in order to release Kali Ma's grip on their town.
