| Summary: | "Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights and enlightenment, is a joyous occasion. There are rangolis to draw with colorful powders and chalk, new outfits to wear, delicious sweets to eat, visits from friends and family, and fireworks that light up the night. Only one thing dims Ronak's enjoyment: wondering if his big sister Dadi will make it home in time to share in all the rituals and special details of the evening. Once she arrives, Ronak's heart can rejoice fully and shine brilliantly. From the creators of Rosh Hashanah, this illustrated second story in a young series about festivals ends with Diwali-themed craft activities for readers"--Amazon.com. |
