The Magic of the Lost Temple

Great book and highly recommended. The pace of life in the countryside of her grandparents in Karnataka surprises city girl Nooni. But she immediately adjusts to the laid-back schedule there and joins her new friends in a flurry of activities like preparing papad, planning picnics, and picking up cycling. The action picks up when Nooni discovers a famous stepwell that dates back thousands of years in the middle of a forest. Join the brave Nooni on a once-in-a-lifetime journey in Sudha Murty's eagerly anticipated book, which is heartwarming, endearing, and impossible to put down.
