Sister India Reads



It’s that time again! Summer is drawing to a close and we think you need to top it off with a great book! That’s right, Sister India Reads book club is back!

Grab some coffee and cozy up, we are diving into another truly great read from beloved young adult author, Mitali Perkins. Nominated for the National Book Award, and winner of multiple Best Book of the Year awards, "You Bring the Distant Near” explores sisterhood, first loves, friendship, and the inheritance of culture--for better or worse, from the perspective of Indian girls who’ve moved to the US. It’s appropriate for ages 12 and older, and we’re all enjoying this wonderful book. 
You can order the book on AmazonSmile (sign up to benefit Sister India on Smile!) Shopping through smile.amazon.com  donates 0.5% of the purchase price to Sister India after you select us as your charitable organization.

 This doesn't just include this book- anytime 
you shop through AmazonSmile, Sister India gets donations on eligible purchases. This is 
a super easy way to help students out just by shopping for the things that you already do. 
We receive a donation check each quarter; all purchases and donors remain anonymous.
