Twin sisters Surya and Chandra live in Shanti, a beautiful village by the Bay of Bengal. The sisters love to sing, but every time they do, something strange happens. Surya's tunes create heat while Chandra's melodies make everything cold! The villagers start to feel afraid, so the girls keep their powers a secret from the world. Until one summer, when disaster strikes! The rain clouds disappear for many days leaving Shanti dry and barren. As the villagers pray for a miracle, Surya and Chandra decide they must help. Can the sisters figure out the true purpose of their powers and save their home? Sophie Cousinié's gorgeous watercolor artwork perfectly complements Shazia Omar's lovely rhythmic storytelling in this sweet story about sibling love, self-discovery, and the power of unleashing your inner strength.
