Inspired by a true story, Kafka and the Doll recounts a remarkable gesture of kindness from one of the world's most bewildering and iconic writers. In the fall of 1923, Franz Kafka encountered a distraught little girl on a walk in the park. She'd lost her doll and was inconsolable. Kafka told her the doll wasn't lost, but instead, traveling the world and having grand adventures! And to reassure her, Kafka began delivering letters from the doll to the girl for weeks. Includes an author's note and a short bio.

Nina & Nim
|
| Summary/Abstract |
Nina is a nine-year-old girl who dreams of being a reporter. The last thing he expected to find when he opened his closet was ... A rabbit! Pink! And giant! But Nim is not just a giant pink rabbit, Nim is an invisible friend!
The twins Alma and Elma, better known as the "cuquinenas", arrive in the neighborhood of La Alameda and soon revolutionize everything. They are the same and dress almost identically: they are modern and know how to set trends. Their arrival causes a real stir, just as the boys in the neighborhood prepare to participate in the great race of home cars that is organized every year.
Nina, of course, between jealous and suspicious, begins to suspect that there is something strange with the newcomers. Nim, oblivious to everything, takes an interest in aliens, reads books and searches for information on the internet. The thing becomes complicated when Nina realizes that the "cuquinenas" fulfill several characteristics that, according to Nim, they are characteristic of the extraterrestrials! And if this were not enough, the intrigue is even more intense when the twins, mysteriously, win the classification for the great race.
Truly, the world of imaginary friends is full of authentic magic and adventure.

| Summary/Abstract |
The Last Mughal is a portrait of the dazzling Delhi Zafar personified, the story of the last days of the great Mughal capital and its final destruction in the catastrophe of 1857. William Dalrymple's retelling of this fateful course of events is shaped from groundbreaking material: previously untranslated Urdu and Persian manuscripts that include Indian eyewitness accounts, and the records of the Delhi courts, police, and administration during the siege. The last Mughal is an extraordinary revisionist work with clear contemporary echoes. It is the first account to present the Indian perspective on the siege, and has at its heart the stories of the forgotten individuals tragically caught up in one of the bloodiest upheavals in history.

H.H. is the spoilt, selfish, beautiful widow of the Maharaja of Mastipur. She lives with her dogs and her caretaker, Hans, in an enormous old house in Mussoorie, taking lovers and discarding them, drinking too much and fending off her reckless sons who are waiting hungrily for their inheritance. The seasons come and go, hotels burn down, cinemas shut shop and people leave the hill station never to return, but H.H. remains constant and indomitable. Observing her antics, often with disapproval, is her old friend Ruskin, who can never quite cut himself off from her. Melancholic, wry and full of charm, Maharani is a delightful novella about love, death and friendship.

| Summary/Abstract |
Madhu is a shy middle-grade developer who spends her holidays creating her dream app, 'School Santhe'. Soon, the app goes viral...and so does she! And why not? After all, an app where everyone at school can trade stuff is the app they've all been waiting for! Madhu now sets her sights on winning the GoTek young developers contest. But when School Santhe is used to sell leaked test papers, she's faced with the hardest decision of her life: a) Shut down the app that made her popular? b) Or stay silent and become part of something...criminal? As her dreams begin to crumble - with the entire school now blaming her for the mess her app has caused - Madhu realizes that sometimes, it's far easier to debug an app than it is to debug your life!
