Media Reviews
“Nair’s jewel-toned illustrations, sprinkled with dots of light, reinforce the text’s essential themes and its core bond between two family members who share a special connection and light each other up.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “This is a great book to add to a social studies curriculum for learning about other cultures. It's also a good story to just enjoy.” —Midwest Book Review “Mehra and Nair are exhaustive in creating the atmosphere, providing: descriptions of the preparations for the festival; cute drawings of food, with accurate food names that provide instant appeal for snack-loving children and adults; illustrations of bazaars and buildings that could inspire classroom connections to geography and architecture; and more. There is a little something for all readers…” —School Library Journal (starred review)
