Another gem in the series
Amma tell me series is the best series for kids, in my view..I came across Durga book and Diwali book recently. And immediately made a purchase. My child is 5 yo and the grasping power of kids in this age grp is high. The eye catching illustrations and the ease of the story makes sure that this story stays with kids for long. This book and the durga puja book are really good additions in my kid’s library.

Good one
Amma, tell me about Diwali!It’s not easy to answer the uncountable questions asked by an inquisitive child. With so many festivals gone by, and now that she knows and understands things, Tia had so many questions on mind about Diwali. This book came across as a saviour!With beautiful illustrations & understandable writing style, this book is surely something that will keep you & your child hooked. Loved the writing style. Since Tia is 7 now, she almost read the whole book herself but for smaller kids, parent needs to read aloud & explain the story to the child.If your kiddo loves reading or listening to stories, this book is a good one to have in their collection!

This is an excellent series of books to learn about Indian festivals. Our grandchildren enjoy them immensely. Every year, their grandmother has to read the whole story to them. They love the illustrations.

My 3 year old asks me to read this to her constantly! At first, I thought this book would be a little long, which it could be for those with a shorter attention span, but my daughter not only listened to the entire story, I had to re-read it on request. It is nice, however, if you wish to break it up. The book has 3 “sections” that aren’t clearly delineated, but easy enough to figure out as you read. First, it starts with how Klaka (the main character) celebrates Diwali with his family. Then, his Amma (mom) tells him about why we celebrate Diwali, about Rama vs. Ravana, etc. Lastly, he hears about Goddess Lakshmi and the importance of being a good person, not just doing the rituals of lighting diyas. The pictures are beautiful, the verses rhyme a bit loosely (I didn’t even notice the rhyme my first time through the book), the message is great, the history is told in a simple way for young children. All in all, I love this book and most importantly, my daughter loves it too!

beautifully illustrated, my 5yr old and 3yr old loves listening to it – easy to follow but also has an important message ‘just praying isn’t enough, actions need to be good!’
