Illustratyed by Archana Sreenivasan

Beach Lane Books

Simon & Schuster

It's Diwali! is a wonderful explosion of color, celebration and culture that begs to be read aloud to the tune of "One, Two, Buckle My Shoe." Kids and adults will learn about the celebration of Diwali, the Indian festival of lights.

From painting on mehndi (henna designs that symbolize luck and happiness to traditional foods like jalebis, a dessert treat, Diwali is a fun event. Every page pops with color and life. Open this picture book and step into India. The art is that vibrant! Kudos to illustrator Archana Sreenivasan. 

It's Diwali! is a must have for any collection of picture books and likely to be heavily awarded. 

Highly recommended ages 3 and up.
