5.0 out of 5 starsJust adored
Reviewed in India on 14 November 2018
Finally someone has presented Indian festivals in a unique way! Through the ages, festivals are a part of our lives and it's nice to read more about them and the stories behind each festival. My daughter loved the book, especially the stories associated with each festival. She adored the characters of Nikhil, Natasha, Dadi and Sarla aunty. A gripping book, quite intriguing. The illustrations are lovely. The nonfiction part is explained well and blends well with the story. The book should be a part of school syllabus. A must read.

This book about all the festivals of India will be cherished by each reader. When I started to read this, I did not have an idea that it will turn out to be such a joyous read but let me assure you it is indeed very engrossing. The way the author, Rachna aunty, weaves the story about the twins adjusting to Indian culture really left me mesmerised. It was as if I am on a tour with them. Also very interesting is the journal entry after each chapter. Hoping Rachna aunty will come up with more such reads.
Best of Luck, Naysa.

5.0 out of 5 stars Festivals of India though simple stories - buy now!
Reviewed in India on 1 May 2021

My 10 year old son enjoyed this book throughly. The excessive commercialization of every festival has ensured that most of us dont know about many festivals and it ends up as a 'holiday' from school/work. This keep does a great job of storytelling about festivals. Highly recommended for all kids especially 8 to 12 yrs old

Kids loved it and are more knowledgeable about Indian festivals. The version of Holi in the book is different to what's followed in my family, but then this is actually true for a lot of Indian festivals. Great that this also has festivals like Guru Nanak, Mahaveer Jayanti etc.

Rachna di has presented festival in a new and totally different way. The festivals make our life colourful and enthusiastic. They bring people together. They come every year to make us forget all ill-will and communal hatred the festivals strengthen the feeling of oneness too people, without any malice, meet with one another and wish for bright future. I'm totally in love with this book😍 everyone should read it.

Very well scripted to understand and rejoice our all imp festivals! Am very sure the kids will love it as much as I have, as is a treasure trove of our rich Indian culture depicted elaborately and meaningfully thru the various festivals that come by and we celebrate throughout the year. Think it should be added to schools syllabus for sure....
