What is it about:
Academic failure
is plaguing Section A of the school.
Section B guided by the very capable Padmavathi M’am is doing very well
in studies. But then again there is only
one Padmavathi M’am, the lone lady teacher in a school manned by 40
teachers. Will Section A ever be able to
score cent per cent marks in Maths? Will
anyone from the class bag the Seethalakshmi Annual Memorial Prize? A glimmer of
hope arrives in the form of Elizabeth Thomas, a new teacher. Will Section A excel? Read the book to know more.
Why
it stands Out: A wonderful lesson of integrity, hard work
and perseverance. The story has a charm
of its own brought out by the black and white illustrations by Geeta
Gangopadhyay. In times when “cut, copy,
paste” has become the mantra of many, this book is a great read for young
readers
Will be best enjoyed by: Young readers above 10 years.
