Synopsis "Aarzu all Around"

A cricket-loving Pakistani girl stifled by patriarchal expectations disguises herself as a boy to get a job to pay her sister's medical bills in this empowering middle grade novel-in-verse. Living with her aunt and patriarchal uncle in Karachi, Pakistan, recently orphaned twelve-year-old Aarzu detests the way she and her younger sister get treated like extras and excluded from all the fun stuff. Aarzu dreams of playing cricket, just like her male cousins and the neighborhood boys in the streets, but her uncle will hear nothing of it. According to him, girls ought to master the art of making round rotis, not play sports. When her sister requires urgent medical treatment but finances are tight, Aarzu decides to earn money herself. She hears of a part-time job at a bungalow near her school--but it's only open to boys. Aarzu has no choice but to disguise herself as a turban-wearing boy to get the gig. Now, Aarzu must find a way to balance school, work, chores, and secret cricket practices--all without burning out or getting caught by her uncle--or else her dreams of making the girls cricket team and her quest to save her sister will crumble around her.
