Book Summary

Bim and the Town of Falling Fruit by Arjun Talwar is a whimsical children's novel set in the fictional town of Poondy, where the everyday is infused with delightful absurdities. In Poondy, fruits like jackfruit, coconuts, and toddy constantly fall from the trees, leading to the invention of the "fruit-helmet" by the legendary Falwala to protect the townspeople. The story follows Bim, a young boy who cherishes his life in Poondy, complete with its eccentric characters such as the Wise Man and the barber-detective. However, when Bim's mother, Miss Chitty, a coffee-colored taxi driver, decides to move away, Bim's last two weeks are filled with quirky adventures—from bat attacks to bike thefts—that can only happen in Poondy.
