Fourteen-year-old Manjunath Kumar knows he’s good at cricket, but not as good as his brother Radha. In “Selection Day” by Aravind Adiga (author of the Booker Prize-winning “The White Tiger”), Manju navigates a world of family pressure, sibling rivalry, and self-discovery. Challenged by his domineering father and a privileged rival, Manju confronts decisions that will redefine his identity and his understanding of the world. ISBN: 9789352770205
