aru shah and the end of time by roshani chokshi

The book is full of sarcasm and humor and is overall hilarious I never read the glossary of books, but Roshani Chokshi wrote it in a way that I was actually interested and engaged in learning about the different figures in Hindu mythology after finishing the book itself.Ģ. I think that it is also important to note that when I read Aru Shah, I read the glossary. Roshani Chokshi seamlessly weaves the magic of Hindu mythology into the modern world and writes the book in a way where it is fun to learn about the myths and legends. The book is based off of Hindu mythology and follows 12 year old Aru Shah when she finds out that she is the reincarnation of one of the five Pandava brothers. The mythology is woven into the book in a magical, amazing way But how is one girl in Spider-Man pajamas supposed to do all that? 1. The only way to stop the demon is to find the reincarnations of the five legendary Pandava brothers, protagonists of the Hindu epic poem, the Mahabharata, and journey through the Kingdom of Death. Her classmates and beloved mother are frozen in time, and it’s up to Aru to save them. She unwittingly frees the Sleeper, an ancient demon whose duty it is to awaken the God of Destruction. Then she can get herself out of this mess and never ever fib again.īut lighting the lamp has dire consequences. They don’t believe her claim that the museum’s Lamp of Bharata is cursed, and they dare Aru to prove it. One day, three schoolmates show up at Aru’s doorstep to catch her in a lie. Is it any wonder that Aru makes up stories about being royalty, traveling to Paris, and having a chauffeur? 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. Twelve-year-old Aru Shah has a tendency to stretch the truth in order to fit in at school.
