Bollywood takes over in this тАЬeffervescentтАЭ (Booklist) and magical middle grade novel about an Indian American girl whose world turns upside down when she involuntarily starts bursting into glamorous song-and-dance routines during everyday life.

You know how in Bollywood when people are in love, they sing and dance from the mountaintops? Eleven-year-old Sonali wonders if they do the same when theyтАЩre breaking up. The truth is, SonaliтАЩs parents donтАЩt get along, and it looks like they might be separating.

SonaliтАЩs little brother, Ronak, is not taking the news well, constantly crying. Sonali would never do that. ItтАЩs embarrassing to let out so many feelings, to show the world how not okay you are. But then something strange happens, something magical, maybe. When Sonali gets upset during a field trip, she canтАЩt bury her feelings like usualтАФinstead, she suddenly bursts into a Bollywood song-and-dance routine about why sheтАЩs upset!

The next morning, much to her dismay, SonaliтАЩs reality has shifted. Things seem brighter, almost too bright. Her parents have had Bollywood makeovers. Her friends are also breaking out into song and dance. And somehow, everyone is acting as if this is totally normal.

Sonali knows something has gone wrong, and she suspects it has something to do with her own mismanaged emotions. Can she figure it out before itтАЩs too late?
