Customer Reviews

All ages can learn from this book!

This book does not feed into the stereotypes of India, it will give you a balanced view of the life of a teen, be it a life in the city or in the village. Exploring their life is very interesting. It is true that there are social issues in India, and these are briefly touched upon as they too are realities of a teen's life in India just as social issues affect the lives of teens in America. I appreciate how these issues are revealed to the reader without judgment. Throughout the book, the judgment of what you learn is left to you as the reader and it is not given to you by the author. So do pick up this book, read it, learn about the culture of India and decide for yourself! This is part of the review, more at http://www.alaivani.com/Default.aspx?tabid=56 & EntryID=300
