Good to read to school. Nice introduction.,
By Lady "lady-in-nj" (NJ, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lights for Gita (Paperback)
A nice story with illustrations although it does not give the kind of detail that my children & I crave. I paraphrased it, using the pictures, for a group of 3 - 6 year olds at school and they liked it. An easy introduction to Diwali for them. Then I showed them a few things, including a clay oil lamp and we had Indian sweets. For pictures of a more traditional celebration and those details, use the 2 page spread in "Children Just Like Me: Celebrations!".

Dispelling our Darkness: Lights For Gita,
This review is from: Lights for Gita (Paperback)
This carefully crafted tale of homesickness and hope combines the universal experience of long-awaited plans foiled by weather with the grief of a young girl pining for her far off home. This book leaves us with the powerful insight that its up to each of us to fill our darkness with light.
