A gripping sequel to The Box and the Dragonfly, the first book in Ted Sanders’s Keepers series, hailed by the New York Times Book Review as a “satisfying and original quest tale.” As Horace and Chloe adjust to their newfound talents—Horace can see the future and Chloe can walk through walls—a girl called April is drawn toward the Keeper stronghold, the Warren. She comes with a Tan’ji of her own, though it is damaged and there is no telling what will happen if it cannot be made whole again. Accompanied by a mysterious woman with a power of her own and the young boy leading them in the right direction, April is being pursued by a pack of sinister hunters. Will she reach the Warren in time, and will it offer safety or only more danger? Ted Sanders’s series has the feel of classic fantasy with a science fiction twist, and this second book, The Harp and the Ravenvine, will thrill readers with adventure, intrigue, and the unexpected at every turn.

I'm proud to state that 10% of the proceeds will be shared with Snehasadan, an orphanage in Mumbai, India. I initially wrote this book for my nephew to understand Indian festivals. My friends and family suggested I turn it into a real book since it would be fun for kids all around the world to learn about the wide variety of festivals celebrated in India. This is my first time publishing. I hope you and your preschooler enjoy reading this book as much as my illustrator and I enjoyed putting this together.

Azuela’s masterpiece is a timeless, authentic portrayal of peasant life, revolutionary zeal, and political disillusionment.
