Description

Sona Sharma – A Friend Indeed is a delightful story about Sona Sharma, a young girl living in India. She learns all about school elections, the ups and downs of best friends, and how to choose what matters most in life.

"Warmly loving and evocative" – The Guardian

When Miss Rao announces that there's going to be an election for Class Leader, Sona is excited to stand as a candidate – until she finds herself competing against her best friends, Joy and Renu. When the three girls fall out, Sona must decide what matters most – winning the election or proving herself to be a true friend indeed.

With the support of her wise family, perhaps Sona can learn that there is often more than one way to be a winner.

About the Author

Chitra Soundar grew up in Chennai, India. An award-winning author of more than 40 books for children, she loves writing picture books, fiction, non-fiction and verse. Chitra travels the world visiting schools and appearing at festivals to bring Indian stories to children everywhere. Chitra is the holder of two prestigious Junior Library Guild gold medals in the US. She lives in south east London. www.chitrasoundar.com

Jen Khatun's work is inspired by the natural world, the books on her shelves and the hidden magical moments found in everyday life.

As a grown up, I cherish every profound life-teaching my family gifted me; they have made me who I am today."
