A Children's Guide to the 51 Shaktipeeths - Book Review by Kids
Friday, 12 December, 2025
The best proof of good children’s books comes from the words spoken by children themselves! Here is a different kind of book review sent in by a mother from the Hindu Parenting Community: a video of her children enjoying the books by Yashika Dubey from Amar Granth (published 2023-2024)1. A Children’s Guide to the 51 Shaktipeeths(you can buy this book here)2. A Children’s Guide to the 12 Shiva Jyotirlings(Buy this book here)The above books have received great reviews from children and parents who are reading them. In the words of Vaishnavi B, a devoted mother from the Hindu Parenting community:These two are truly wonderful books. I purchased them last year, and both my 13-year-old and 9-year-old, along with us adults, thoroughly enjoyed them. A beautiful read — Highly recommend them to all Sanātani parents. Please find attached a review of the book, along with a video of my 9-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old boy who engaged in a week of learning through the Shakthi Peetha book during our Sampoorna Vidya Navaratri program. The children were deeply absorbed in the stories and came to understand that it is natural to feel grief, and that even the devas, too, experience sorrow. It’s such a refreshing way to make our scriptures fun and engaging!Reflections on the book from 13-year old Ketan:The book is beautifully illustrated and is a sacred introduction to understanding the significance of Shakthi Peethas. At its heart, the dharma that flows through our samskruthi teaches us not to cling to the mortal body, for there exists a higher, eternal principle within. Shakthi Peethas are sacred abodes where the supreme power of the divine feminine is revealed, reminding us of the immense energy and grace that permeates the universe.Note: If you find our articles and podcasts helpful, please support us through a paid subscription.
