Holidays are starting—and that is especially joyful for Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar who hates school. But even the holidays are ruined because his uncle, C.V. Raman, is coming to stay.
Raman Chithappa is a world-renowned scientist, and he likes to talk about himself and about science. He bulldozes the eight kids in the family to participate—with varying degrees of enthusiasm–in a series of adventures and experiments in physics. These disrupt the household, anger the adults, terrify the domestic helps and outrage the neighbours. And for Chandra, they provide a glimpse of a world he finds he might want to be a part of.
Filled with rollicking humour and intense physics, this meticulously researched novel imagines one magical holiday in Madras. The unusual nature of the family—comprising two Nobel laureates, and other science luminaries—leads to some unique and hilarious adventures. Priya Kuriyan’s cheery illustrations capture the riot and rumpus in striking detail.

After the stupendous success of Malgudi Schooldays, R.K. Narayan’s chronicle of the escapades of Swami
and his friends, comes Malgudi Adventures with more delightful stories of the children’s adventures in the magical South Indian small town of Malgudi.
There are the memorable stories of Babu, who, in trying to set up the lights for his sisters’ Navaratri display, manages to plunge the entire household into darkness; of a snake charmer boy who grows up with a monkey named Rama as his companion; and of Raju, who decides to become a guide when a train station is built at Malgudi. Also included are the fascinating stories of Balu, who dumps his father’s accounts ledger
in the gutter; of a little boy who finds himself lost on the streets of Malgudi late one night; of Chandran, who falls head over heels in love on the banks of the Sarayu one evening; and of the hilarious sequence of events that unfolds when Raja the tiger decides to seek refuge in the local school.
Culled from some of Narayan’s greatest novels such as The Man-eater of Malgudi, The Bachelor of Arts, The
English Teacher, The Guide and The Financial Expert, and containing three of his short stories, Malgudi Adventures is a funny, exciting and entertaining book that children of all ages will enjoy.
