Has nine special forms-each one unique, not just a clone.

The festival of nine nights and nine days
That’s celebrated across India and the world in myriad ways
To praise the goddesses and their glory.
This is their story!
2. Amma, Take Me to Tirupati : Come, explore the places where we worship!
Follow Amma and the boys to know all about the world-famous temple of Tirupati Balaji.
Enjoy the scenic drive uphill, while listening to captivating lore about the snake that became a hill range and how Vishnu came to reside on the very same hill, first as a boar and then as a heartbroken husband. Wake up bright and early to the hymns of Suprabhatam. Savour the delicious Tirupati laddu as prasad. Relish a few quiet moments by the lake Swami Pushkarini. Witness the adoration of Venkateshwara’s devotees.
Told through interesting stories with captivating illustrations, this new series introduces readers to the history of different faiths and their associated monuments.
3. Amma, Take Me to Shirdi: Join Amma and her boys as they travel to Shirdi, home to one of India’s most celebrated saints-Sai Baba. Hear the story of one of the most loved and revered mystics. Walk around the neem tree that gave him shelter. Relish a few moments in Dwarka Mai, the dilapidated mosque that became his home. Visit Dhuni Mai, the ever-burning fire Sai Baba had lit, and receive his blessings. Hear stories of the countless miracles he performed as you pay respects at the Shri Samadhi Temple, where he rests.
Feel Sai Baba’s all-pervasive presence, blessings and grace as you soak in the spirit of this sanctum. Listen to his teachings of Shraddha and Saburi and his beliefs of ‘Allah Malik’ and ‘Sabka Malik Ek’. Let Amma take you on a journey to witness the life of this unique saint who taught by example, compassion and kindness and who, for a century, has been drawing millions of adoring devotees every year.
Told through interesting stories with captivating illustrations, this book brings alive an important place of worship in an engaging and non-preachy way.

About Author
Nalini Ramachandran's works for young readers cover a variety of subjects and styles-from a textbook on history to tales of horror and mystery; from a graphic novel cum biography to narratives from mythology; from legend and lore to humour and more. She began writing for children when working with India's only all-comics children's magazine, Tinkle. Today, her short stories have appeared in anthologies such as Gifts of Teaching and Scary Tales. She is the author of Detective Sahasasimha: The Case of the Disappearing Books; APJ Abdul Kalam: One Man, Many Missions (which won the 'Best of Indian Children's Writing: Contemporary Awards 2019' in the 'Comics/Graphic Novels' category); and the non-fiction children's book Lore of the Land: Storytelling Traditions of India.

Bhakti Mathur took to writing in 2010 when she created the popular Amma, Tell Me series of children's picture books about Indian festivals and mythology. After a long stint as a banker, she now juggles her time between her writing, her passion for yoga and long-distance running, and her family. She lives in Hong Kong with her husband, their two children and two dogs. She holds a master of fine arts degree in creative writing from the University of Hong Kong and freelances as a journalist. When not writing or running after her young boys, Bhakti is happiest curled up with a book in one hand and a hot cup of chai in the other. To know more, visit her at www.bhaktimathur.com.
