Book Overview

A colorful and immersive book that introduces kids to the joy and meaning of Holi through an exciting first-hand account.

Every March, people across India and around the world celebrate Holi, the Hindu festival of color, new life, love, and spring. In Celebrations & Festivals: Holi, the festival is brought to life through the eyes of two children who are celebrating Holi with their family and friends.

Join Basanti and her twin sister as they pick flowers, tell traditional Hindu stories around the bonfire, prepare delicious sweet dumplings, and playfully throw bright gulal powders over each other, turning everyone's white clothes into a rainbow of color and a symbol of new beginnings.

Along the way, you'll learn all about the significance and history of the festival, brought to even more life with:

- Instructions to make your own colorful tie-dyed T-shirt
- A recipe to make delicious kulfi ice cream
- A fun quiz to test out all your knowledge

In this immersive exploration of Holi, young readers join a family as they celebrate. Seen through the eyes of young children celebrating themselves, this is a simple and exciting way to introduce little ones to this special period.

In the Celebrations & Festivals series, own-voice artists bring each festival to colorful life with authentic details from their own childhoods.

About Sital Gorasia Chapman

Sital Gorasia Chapman grew up in London with a cheeky younger brother and lots of cousins. As a child she was a big reader and the library was one of her favourite places. When she wasn't reading, she was writing, doodling, or daydreaming about stories, and as an adult she has now authored many books for children. She loves the colour and playfulness of Holi and the way it brings people together.Darshika Varma completed a BFA in Applied Arts at Rachana Sansad in Mumbai. Her career started off as a designer in digital marketing, from where she moved on to designing wedding invitations and eventually found her true calling as a children's illustrator. Darshika is usually found curled up in a corner poring over a book, sniffing in the scent of inked pages, drawing inspiration from the fantasy world, and bringing those vivid imaginations to life through her illustrations.
