Nina Soni, Former Best Friend

Meet Nina Soni!

An #OwnVoices chapter book series starring a lovable, distractible Indian-American girl and her family and friends. Great STEAM-themed read aloud.

?A sweet and entertaining series opener about family and friendship.? ?Kirkus Reviews

Nina tried as hard as she could but still somehow forgot about her school project. Fortunately, a class lesson about Alexander Fleming suggests how she might make a great discovery?and thus a great project! But with little sister Kavita?s birthday party right around the corner, and her longtime friendship with Jay on the rocks, Nina has a lot to keep track of.

Readers are sure to relate to author Kashmira Sheth?s endearing Nina Soni and her slightly scatter-brained efforts to manage her life with lists, definitions, and real-life math problems.
