Description

On the morning of Diwali, Binny feels both excited and nervous—because today is her turn to share the Festival of Lights with her class. As she gathers her thoughts, she brings Diwali to life through vivid descriptions of fireworks, sweet treats like pedas and jalebis, and the warm glow of clay diyas that make everyone pause in wonder. Blending a gentle, age-appropriate story with clear, kid-friendly details about Hindu traditions, this book celebrates the joy of community, the courage to speak up, and the meaning behind festive rituals. With Thrity Umrigar’s heartfelt storytelling and Nidhi Chanani’s enchanting illustrations, it’s a luminous read for families and classrooms alike.
