Middle Grade Book Club | Linden Tree Books

March 19, 2023 @ 4:00 pm 5:00 pm

Come join us at Linden Tree Books for our Middle Grade Book Club for ages 9 and up! This month we’re talking about Momo Arashima Steals the Sword of the Wind, a thrilling, funny middle-grade fantasy series about a girl who sets out to save her Shinto goddess mother—and the world—by facing down demons intent on bringing chaos.

Led by bookseller extraordinaire Lorilee, we hope to introduce interested readers to amazing new books and the opportunity to talk about them in a fun, relaxed group setting.

Please email lorilee@lindentreebooks.com to RSVP.

About Momo Arashima Steals the Sword of the Wind: All Momo wants for her twelfth birthday is an ordinary life—like everyone else’s. But then Momo’s mother falls gravely ill, and a death hag straight out of her mother’s childhood stories attacks Momo at the mall, where she’s rescued by a talking fox… and “ordinary” goes out the window. It turns out Momo’s mother is a banished Shinto goddess who used to protect a long-forgotten passageway to Yomi—a.k.a. the land of the dead. That passageway is now under attack, and countless evil spirits threaten to escape and wreak havoc across the earth. Momo must embrace her (definitely not “ordinary”) identity as half human, half goddess to unlock her divine powers, save her mother’s life, and force the demons back to Yomi.
