Middle grade books regarding the partition of India have been hitting the shelves all of a sudden and I’m glad for it. I learned nothing about this up until this point in my life and Zarina Divided has added to my knowledge base. This is another lovely novel in verse by an authentic author who deserves a spot on library shelves! Quick read but with emotional depth.

The story of a family being greatly affected by the British leaving India. So much information that I didn’t know and I loved the fact that it was written in verse. Well written and heart warming!
