Neel, an ordinary fourteen-year-old schoolboy lives in Bengaluru with his ordinary three-generation family. But his humdrum life is overtaken by extraordinary events, with puzzling thefts in their colony. While he endeavours to crack the case,
he finds himself pursued by a romantically inclined classmate, leading to comic and endearing encounters. Yet, Neel’s unremarkable world shatters as he explores the highs and lows of growing up, and friendships, when he confronts the harsh reality of communal hatred, both at school and beyond.
A Higgledy Piggledy Growing Up is a captivating young adult novel that explores the complexities of adolescence. As Neel recounts a series of dramatic events that unfold over three transformative months, from January to March, he takes you on a
rollercoaster ride of growth, self-discovery, and coming of age. This is a story of growing up and of growing apart
