4.0 out of 5 stars Intro. to holiday for young children. Very British, May 27, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Diwali (Celebrations) (Paperback)
Several of the teachers at our culturally diverse Montessori preschool liked this book enough to order it for their classrooms. The pictures are bright and show children preparing for and celebrating Diwali. Some of the Hindu teachers found the book's "Britain-centric" text a little disturbing and considered the treatment of Diwali very superficial. On this last point, perhaps a superficial treatment is to be expected in a book that is basically a brief first introduction to the holiday. We like this book as a starting point for discussion of the holiday that is celebrated by many of our students.

This book shows the story of Diwali in home school and wider settings. Very good in helping children to understand some of the diversity in our society.
