Indian-British sisters Amber, Geena, and Jazz discover a former Bollywood star facing eviction and invite her to live with them, then hope she'll help them with their school fund-raiser--a Bollywood party. Fans of Bindi Babes will welcome this entertaining sequel, in which the tweenage sisters once again provide a comic, lighthearted romp with some serious undertones mixed in.

Beneath their ultra-cool appearance, the three Dhillon sisters share the unspoken grief of their mother's recent death. Drama ensues when their "interfering" Auntie moves from India to the Dhillons' British home, but the family's bonds ultimately heal their sorrow. The sisters' crafty antics and spirited relationships make this book a vibrant, humorous read.

Annie, a British kindergartner who reads Shakespeare and stock reports, is a source of irritation and embarrassment to her older brother. In a quietly eerie narrative, Jack learns that his little sister has an imaginary playmate whom Annie claims is a time traveler from the future. The plot's ambiguities are nicely handled in a debut novel that makes us empathize with Jack's frustration and understand Annie's loneliness.
