Intro. to holiday for young children. Very British 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 poin. A Customer said Brilliant for kids and teachers. 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.
