Yesha Gambhir Mirza

Yesha Gambhir Mirza is an author crafting Indian literature that nurtures mental health and social development. Whether acing her child development studies at Stanford or tending to her organic garden, Yesha approaches life with empathy and curiosity. Her debut series, Shanti and Amani, follows eleven-year-old Amani's journey to the age of sixteen through six novellas that weave magical realism with real-life dilemmas. Through mystical encounters with her great-grandmother, Bebe Shanti, Amani embarks on her greatest adventures and discovers how to bridge traditional wisdom with modern life. Each of these stories has been tested by Yesha's toughest critics—her teen twins—who have been left yearning for more.
