Hats & Hoods and Humiliation is an interesting book
written by a child prodigy named Hiranya Verma. My first reaction after reading
the book was impossible, a ten year old child cannot write such a book that offers
a plethora of practical insights into dealing with daily problems.
Given the age of the author, the book concentrates on
the issues faced by young children and even adolescents. The book offers practical
advice on how to handle bullies, crushes and heart breaks. The ten years old author is a highly matured
person. She says, ‘Someone wants to ruin your day, but don’t let them. Simply
laugh. But don’t bottle up your feelings either. Remember, the balance between
your emotions.’ She offers relationship advice too. She offers solutions to most of the problems.
She reaffirms that your joy is not dependent on what others feel about you. At
the same time she emphasizes the importance of apology and confession.
I have been living on this planet for thirty-six years,
and obviously, I am senior to the author by many decades. Yet, let me candidly admit
that I have learnt a lot from this child author.
The book is extremely well written. It is edited
professionally and has an attractive layout. Buy this book, it will cost you
less than a coffee, but enrich you by many bounds.
