Tara's Project won second prize in the category Non-Fiction (9-12 years) in the competition for writers of children's books organized by children book Trust.

While surfing the Internet with her sister, Disha, at their cousin Prashant's house, 12-year-old Tara decides to make a project on the Women Olympians. Much to her surprise, Tara learns that the status and privilege women enjoy in various sports today is the result of the tireless effort and tremendous struggle some of them faced before being allowed to make an appearance in
1900. The book beautifully illustrates the indomitable spirit of some of these women who have made a mark in the greatest sporting event.
