Yashodhara Lal

Those Days in Delhi Yashodhara Lal

Delhi in the '90s. And this time, it's going to be Gudia's summer. So what if she's the quintessential awkward middle child? So what if it seems like everything - from the hair sprouting on her legs to teachers making her life miserable - is conspiring against her? She's taking matters into her own hands, and there's no way that she's going to fail. After all, there are three things Gudia is obsessed with - basketball, the boy with the American accent...and winning. But in her desire to win this campaign of middle-school one-upmanship and conceal her plummeting grades, Gudia might just lose all that's important to her - including herself.

Best-selling author Yashodhara Lal is back with this funny, bittersweet and entirely relatable story about growing up - of that summer of innocence, when the world was simpler, and even our problems seemed sweeter.
