Warm, wise, and full of heart, SONA SHARMA: A FRIEND INDEED is a delightful story about friendship, school life, and learning what truly matters.
Â
Sona Sharma lives in India and loves school - especially when there’s something exciting happening. So when Miss Rao announces an election for Class Leader, Sona can’t wait to put her name forward. But things become complicated when her two best friends, Joy and Renu, decide to stand as candidates too.
Suddenly, what began as a fun opportunity turns into a test of loyalty. Hurt feelings, misunderstandings, and competition threaten to pull the girls apart. As tensions rise, Sona must decide what’s more important: winning the election or being the kind of friend she wants to be.
With gentle humour and insight, Chitra Soundar captures the ups and downs of childhood friendships and the tricky choices that help us grow. Set in a vibrant Indian family and school community, the story celebrates kindness, honesty, and the wisdom passed down through generations.
Perfect for readers who enjoy realistic school stories with emotional depth, Sona Sharma: A Friend Indeed is a thoughtful reminder that sometimes being a true winner has nothing to do with coming first.
