What we like about this book: The fact that even Nanis (grandmas) can become Ninjas! The illustrations are cool which make it a fun & easy read! . The Indian-ness in the language makes it relatable for kids in India.
Quoting Divit: “Ninja Nani Series by Lavanya Karthik – A nani with superpowers! Can it get any better? Meet Deepu and his Nani. They are very good friends. But one day, when Nani was watching Chef D (her favourite show) on TV, the TV zapped her! Deepu was shocked to find out that his Nani had got the powers of Ninja Dragon Morimori (Deepu’s favourite TV show)! For some reason, Nani was mean to Deepu after that. The same night, Nani heard jingling. Deepu said that when jingling was there, there were bad guys causing trouble! As soon as she heard this, Nani leapt out of the window and ran off! To Deepu she said nothing. After a while, Nani hadn’t come back, so Deepu started to search for her. Deepu found her but so did some burglars. But at this moment, when they needed it the most, the powers went away. “Why only at THIS moment????!” said Nani. The bad guys kidnapped them. Then Nani said sorry to Deepu. And Deepu accepted it! Nani’s Powers came back and she beat the bad guys up! Now they save the world together. We have all four from the series and have had a total blast in all adventures with the pair.”
