Vibrant colors and illustrations!
I wanted to familiarize my toddler with the various Hindu festivals, and this book was a great start! Simple, easy stories, cute illustrations in bright and vibrant colors, and in a board book format. It’s one of her favorite books, and I will definitely be looking to buy more!

Super cute, easy to read, accessible.
I love this book! I love how it talks about which flowers they use to make the different powders, and how the simple color-by-color approach makes it accessible to younger children as well as informative for older ones. Clean illustrations, simple text, and a beautiful intro to the lovely festival that is Holi.

Nicely Written
My kids are second generation Indian and wanted nice but yet simple books to explain our costums. This book did it very nicely. My kids enjoy the book and the story to go with it. My kids are 2 and 4 this book is perfect for thier age group, explains Holi in just enough detail for their age.
