Vacation Mysteries

Embark on a journey to unlock ancient magic in this cultural adventure through the heart of San Francisco!

Eleven-year-old Priya is an ordinary girl. She loves her family, she fights with her little sister, Sona, all the time . . . and she's crazy about everything to do with magic. When Priya and Sona discover an ancient box in their basement with six mysterious keyholes, they quickly realize they've stumbled across the mystery of a lifetime.

After some clever internet sleuthing, the girls trace the box back to the city of San Francisco. Convincing their parents to take them on a family vacation is the easy part-now the real detective work begins.

The sisters soon find themselves trekking across exciting locales, all in search of the keys to open the box. From museums and parks to iconic, cultural landmarks, Priya and Sona find themselves learning about art, American history, Native American culture, the importance of exercise, overcoming fears-and their own family legacy.

With hard work, open-mindedness, and sheer girl power, can the girls unlock the truth behind a real-life family mystery?

Vacation Mysteries: The Magic Box is written by young author Diya Cheruku. Envisioned when she was eleven years old herself, this story is the result of Diya's passionate research on cultures, locations, and her own heritage as an American immigrant. Diya hopes that kids like her will see themselves in Priya, and that her book will inspire them to fall in love with reading, exploration, and real-life adventures the same way she has.
