Show Notes
Yetide Badaki’s dynamic narration returns with this sequel to AKATA WITCH. Sunny, an Igbo and American albino girl, has the power to save humanity. Sunny and her friends Chichi, Orlu, and Sasha push the rules as magical Leopard People to help save the world. Badaki skillfully switches between Sunny’s bright American accent and other characters’ Nigerian- and American-sounding voices. Encounters with river beasts, lake monsters, a giant spider, a flying leafcutter, and supreme beings are full of drama and excitement. Published by Tantor Media.
