About This Book
Dini has just returned from India to the Washington, DC area when her best friend Maddie reappears in her life alongside Bollywood star Dolly Singh, who needs help with everything from a missing passport to finding an elephant for a parade. As Dini takes on the task of solving Dolly’s increasingly complicated problems, small favors spiral into the kind of mess that tests her friendship with Maddie. This illustrated middle-grade novel weaves together American and Indian cultures through humor and the everyday chaos of growing up. It’s the second book in the Grand Plan to Fix Everything series.
