How many times are kids supposed to study Gandhi? Come September and out comes the bald head wig, round glasses, white dhoti, tall stick ... that's about the extent of how today's kids engage with the Mahatma. Chandrashekhar is one such teen. Bored by the annual Gandhi projects, he wonders if his teacher is being too unreasonable in asking them to ""BE"" Gandhi. And then, his world is shaken by events that rock him to the core, forcing him to dig deep and not just find his 'inner Gandhi', but become Gandhi.

Literature in Action by Paro Anand, is an adventure with stories, taking you on flights of fantasy, but connecting you back into your own world, your own adventure. It talks about issues that impact young people today, things that they're talking about, whether parents and teachers know it or not. whether they approve or not.through fiction, you will discover reality as raw as it is, as painful as it gets. Or as weirdly wired and bizarre as it can be. You can reach out to me at paroanand@gmail.com
