No Ordinary Day" is about a 10 year old girl named Valli who discovers she has no family, and that the family she has been living with was paid to take her in after her mother died. The family is very poor and treats her badly. The people in her village work in the coal mines - adults and children alike - and she spends her days walking barefoot through the village collecting coal. She believes she has magic feet because she feels no pain in them, when in reality she has leprosy. Valli fleas her village and ends up in Kolkata, living on the streets. Valli uses her guile and courage to survive each day. She meets an old man and his goat one day and is given wisdom which she follows each day: find someone who needs what you have more than you, and give them what you have. This simple kindness is a lesson for the reader and Valli throughout the book. One day, Valli meets a doctor who offers to heal her feet if she will stay in the hospital with her, and after a time, Valli accepts the offer and is healed. As his friend lay dying, PC John Murray made her a promise that he would not rest until those responsible had been brought to justice. Thirty-seven years would pass before he was able to fulfil that undertaking.

No Ordinary Day by Deborah Ellis is a fantastic novel. The book the events of Valli’s(the main character) adventures in Kolkata, India. Valli is a courageous girl who finds herself on a journey of independence, taking with her only her spirit. Even though she was neglected by her grandparents and finding out that her real mom passed away, she was still a young, strong, and independent girl. Who took the risk of running away.

Dr. Indra, a friendly doctor who looking closely to into Valli's foot and helps her to recover. Claire is in her 30s and is embarking on a new stage of her life with boyfriend Jason. The decision to share an apartment is the catalyst for Claire to face her past. Her cathartic "I'll Be Here" provides the audience the final clue to her arc. Learning that her "family" is not really her family is freeing for Valli. With this new information she runs away from the What else is not a stretch of the imagination – this hits closer to home for many of us, no matter what stage of life we find ourselves in either.

That person who looks better, sounds better, is better– even all these conclusions we have concocted in created in our heads, creating rivalries and jealousies with people who may or may not have the slightest inclination that we have – they too would find these destructive cycles somewhat ordinary somewhat familiar themselves.

It reminds me so much of the sort of tales Ferber would tell, particularly "So Big" which starred Jane Wyman and Sterling Hayden years ago, as a couple who gradually adjust to each other in a strained relationship.
