The Best Day of My Life

Valli is sick of spending her days picking up coal. But coal is the only thing there is in Jharia.

Valli’s family won’t let her go to school and there’s never enough food. So when Valli discovers her ‘aunt’ is actually a stranger who was paid money to look after her, she stows away in a coal truck and sets out for a new life. Valli is brave and resourceful enough to survive on the streets of Kolkata. But why does she have ‘magic feet’ that feel no pain? A chance encounter with a doctor gives her some answers, but Valli must decide if she trusts the doctor enough to accept help.
