book synopsis/description:
Juneli’s First Term is the first of a trilogy, the other two being Juneli at Avila’s and An Exciting Term. The stories were first serialized in Children’s World, a popular children’s magazine in India, between 1978 and 1985. They were later published as separate books in 1992 by Harper Collins (India). For twelve-year-old Juneli, who has lived quietly with her father in their forest Bungalow, going to school is a dream come true! She finds at St. Avila's everything she has always longed for - friends, lessons, smooth sailing, as she finds out soon enough. It does not merely consist of cooking classes, music lessons and midnight feasts! There are problems . . . the humiliation of being wrongly accused followed by undeserved disappointment. Can Juneli live it down?
