Kate’s choice: The House of Arden by E. Nesbit
Ali’s choice: Aru Shah and the End of Time by Roshani Chokshi
The Mahabharat has been dramatized twice for TV. This is the one I watched in the 1980s.
If you want to read the other great Sanskrit epic, the Ramayana, I recommend this graphic novel version told from Sita’s perspective.
A new biography of Edith Nesbit was published in 2019.
The House of Arden was dramatized for BBC radio in 1989. You can buy an audiobook collection of Nesbit adaptations here.

Thanks as always to Steve Vapour Trails and Jack Sadler-Johnson.
