About the Book

Aru Shah meets Aladdin in this fast-paced debut middle grade fantasy about a curious girl who discovers she has the power to control an all-powerful jinn. Insyirah's calm, orderly world falls into chaos when her proud nenek (grandmother) has a bad fall, and Insyirah and her mother must move back to Malaysia to take care of her. Her new home holds wild and dangerous mysteries, and while finding her feet, Insyirah discovers a shocking secret: the women in her family can control jinn--powerful, ancient jungle spirits--and, one day, she will inherit one of her own. What's more, her new school is haunted by an evil spirit determined to force her out of Malaysia. As Insyirah discovers the fascinating ways of the seen and unseen worlds, she finds danger around every corner. And when her family situation grows perilous, she must gather all her resilience to overcome unexpected obstacles and make a life-changing decision.

Review :
"A Malay Muslim tween contends with the consequences of a generational connection with spirits in Idil's energetic debut...Syirah's relationship with Malaysian culture, as well as her desire to overcome her perceived limitations to protect herself and her loved ones, adds dimensionality to this bustling mythological adventure." --Publishers Weekly This delightful coming-of-age tale weaves humor, deep family bonds, steadfast faith, and mythology into a wholly believable narrative...An intriguing exploration of mysticism and religion, centering on a strong and deeply relatable girl. --Kirkus Reviews
