Bollywood takes over in this "effervescent" (Booklist) and magical
middle grade novel about an Indian American girl whose world turns
upside down when she involuntarily starts bursting into glamorous
song-and-dance routines during everyday life. You know how in
Bollywood when people are in love, they sing and dance from the
mountaintops? Eleven-year-old Sonali wonders if they do the same
when they're breaking up. The truth is, Sonali's parents don't get
along, and it looks like they might be separating. Sonali's little
brother, Ronak, is not taking the news well, constantly crying.
Sonali would never do that. It's embarrassing to let out so many
feelings, to show the world how not okay you are. But then
something strange happens, something magical, maybe. When Sonali
gets upset during a field trip, she can't bury her feelings like
usual-instead, she suddenly bursts into a Bollywood song-and-dance
routine about why she's upset! The next morning, much to her
dismay, Sonali's reality has shifted. Things seem brighter, almost
too bright. Her parents have had Bollywood makeovers. Her friends
are also breaking out into song and dance. And somehow, everyone is
acting as if this is totally normal. Sonali knows something has
gone wrong, and she suspects it has something to do with her own
mismanaged emotions. Can she figure it out before it's too late?
