This charming and colorful Diwali story about a girl sharing her favorite holiday with her family, friends, and neighbors is a love letter to community, immigrant culture, and the festival of lights.

Devi loves the Diwali season. It’s a time to wear her favorite red bindi and eat samosas until she bursts! Make mithai and design rangoli with her papa. And paint diyas with her nani—a reminder to shine her light brightly all year long.

This joyful story, with vibrant collage illustrations, follows one girl’s Diwali traditions as her family celebrates their favorite holiday with the ones they love.
