Not Myself Today

Key Selling Points This is a classic body-switch tale in the spirit of Freaky Friday, but with a South Asian twist and a redemptive conclusion. There is both poignancy and humor as these two strong girls on the cusp of adulthood clash over their conflicting values and divergent backgrounds. The story touches on class, connection to culture and immigration in an accessible way for young readers. The supernatural twist adds an element of fun to a story about a bully, and it provides a satisfying evolution of Riya's character as she realizes how harmful her behavior has been.
