This book chronicles 25 stories based on the author's seven-years odyssey as a student at Sainik School Bijapur in Karnataka, a military- style residential institution. Hailing from a village, the nine-year-old Kannada-speaking protagonist encountered a cultural transition where English became obligatory, table manners involved cutlery, and discipline strictly enforced. Across classrooms, sports fields, and parade grounds, the author recounts experiences shared with equally bewildered class friends, senior students, and teachers. These narratives, reminiscent of R.K. Narayan's "Swami and Friends," interweave themes of childhood innocence, friendship, mischief, and personal growth, enriched with humour and nostalgia. Tailored for young readers, particularly those in & from residential schools, the stories offer an immersive journey through characters and emotions. For older generations, they evoke a throw-back at the country's socio-cultural and economic landscape of the 1960s and '70s, markedly different from today's setting.
