At the Old Swimming Hole by Sara Paretsky. Source reading level: B2 Intermediate+.
This is the story of B. R. Ambedkar, also known as the Father of India’s Constitution. Babasaheb, as he was fondly called, was not only a visionary, an economist and a revolutionary, he was also a lifelong reader. This is the story of his love for learning and how it fuelled his journey.
It was forbidden to go there, and to go at night to hammer a nail at the head of the grave? Ashhar was either a fool, or he was trying to be oh-so-brave. Why else would he accept Zulfi’s challenge? Would Ashhar enter the haunted tomb on a full moon night?

Suggested age, readers, English difficulty and US school grade are separate labels. Age groups are guidance based on source information or editorial review; unreviewed books are “Not assessed”. A US grade is assigned only with source information or a documented assessment; otherwise it is “Not assessed”. Levels use A1–C2 to indicate reading difficulty. StoryWeaver levels 1/2/3/4 use our approximate A1/A2/B1/B2 guide, labelled “estimated”; this is not an official equivalence. A book-specific assessment takes priority. Other unassessed books are labelled “Not assessed”. Source StoryWeaver levels are retained separately. Classics retain their original English.
