Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Priya loves being with family and friends to watch fireworks and celebrate Diwali. But this year Priya and her parents are living in the United States, and no one seems to know about the holiday. Priya misses the traditions in India. But as she strings lights outside and creates rangoli art, Priya introduces the festival of lights to her neighbors. And even though the celebration is different this year, it's still Diwali.
A heartwarming story of celebrating in a new place and sharing the Hindu festival of lights with those unfamiliar with the holiday.
Ages 5-8. Beaming Books.
"When Priya moves from India to America, she finds a way to share her favorite holiday with her new neighbors"-- Provided by publisher.
