. the
monsoon
Description:
37 pages : color illustrations ; 23 cm.
Summary:
Mina
loves to play soccer all year round. Nothing comes close to it. But when the
monsoon
arrives,
Mina
is stuck indoors and she can't help feeling restless and bored. Her ammi doesn't understand. The doodhwalla doesn't understand. That's when
Mina
decides she'll find ways of chasing away the clouds herself. In doing so, she makes an unexpected discovery. Soccer will never be the same again for
Mina
! In a charming story that any kid who loves a sport will relate to, soccer-mad
Mina
tries just about any trick to stop the
monsoon
clouds from raining on her game. In doing so, she shows us glimpses of her life in a village in eastern India, highlighting the important role played by
monsoon
rains in this part of the world. The heart of the story, however, is the bond forged between a mother and her daughter on a gray, gloomy day.
