A Malaysian spin on Little Red Riding Hood from the critically
acclaimed author of The Girl and the Ghost, Hanna Alkaf.
Courage is the strongest magic there is.
On Hamra's thirteenth birthday, she receives nothing but endless nagging
and yet another errand to run in the Langkawi jungle that looms behind
her home.
No one has remembered her special day.
And so, stifled and angry, Hamra ignores something she shouldn't: the
rules of the jungle.
Always ask permission before you enter. Hamra walks boldly in.
Never take what isn't yours. Hamra finds the most perfect jambu and
picks it.
Of course, rules exist for a reason, and soon an enormous weretiger is
stalking her dreams, demanding payment for her crimes--and Hamra embarks
on a quest deep into the jungle to set things right.
For fans of Ikegna and A Tale Dark and Grimm comes a story of a
brave heroine, a beguiling villain, fantastical worlds, magical
adventures, and a journey that will remind you that hope, friendship,
and love endures all.
