{"product_id":"the-conch-bearer-chitra-banerjee-divakaruni-9780689872426","title":"The Conch Bearer","description":"In a dingy shack in the less-than-desirable Indian neighborhood he calls home, twelve-year-old Anand is entrusted with a conch shell that possesses mystical powers. His task is to return the shell to its rightful home many hundreds of miles away. Accompanying him are Nisha, a headstrong but resourceful child of the streets, and a mysterious man of indeterminate age and surprising resources named Abadhyatta. His quest will take him farther from home than he's ever been and will teach him more than he ever imagined -- and it will force him to make a poignant decision that will change him forever.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0689872429\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780689872426\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Aladdin Paperbacks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.4\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e73959 \/ Conch Bearer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/07\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePW Notes and Reprints\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/07\/2005 pg. 62","brand":"Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44050626412799,"sku":"9780689872426","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6e98881e-22cd-433e-84cb-5615dc4f27e2.jpg?v=1685008319","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-conch-bearer-chitra-banerjee-divakaruni-9780689872426","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
