Journey from the land of fantasy to the real world by someone who has traversed this path herself.Losing her mom at the age of six, the author had to walk through a lot of transformation at a time when most kids play with their mothers and fathers. This book is a collection of short stories, poems and very useful articles aimed at young adults from the age of 10 and up, and also to their parents. There is a very pertinent discussion on parent-child dilemma, and very handly points about being street-smart at all levels. Environmental, social and gender-based problems have been discussed at length, with illustrations, and possible solutions. Issues about choosing right friends have also been discussed in details through real-life stories. Any reference to any person, living or dead, is purely coincidental. With general socio-economic changes that the world is going through at the moment, this book can be used not only as an inspiration and motivation for kids, but also is a great confidence-builder for every one, especially the young ladies.
