An entrancing and exciting Deepavali celebration story with the Pasumans (Anthropomorphic beings) of Vajra Dvipa. A holiday book for everyone (starting ages 8 and above).
Diwali is a serious matter for the Pulis-Adhvika and Aadi. The preparation begins weeks in advance, usually. However, this year, it's different. Due to certain circumstances, they were not ready, despite it being Diwali day. As their friends, the Gajas--Subbu and Sumati, and Jambu, join and help them prepare the house for the festival, things inadvertently become 'Un-Diwali' like. What happens next?
Come, explore, and re-discover the true essence of Diwali along with the Pasumans - Adhvika, Aadi, Subbu, Sumati, and Jambu, as they take you on a roller-coaster ride of celebrations, traditions, songs, and festive treats. You surely are in for a Diwali Delight!!!
The book covers lots of traditions, festive treats, and rites as part of the story. There is a letter at the end explaining the diverse reasons behind the festival from all over the Indian subcontinent, the seasonal significance as well as a multipage glossary describing/translating various festival-related terms from different Indian languages(Ex: Puja, Mantra, Ladis, Laddoos, Diyas, Subhakankshalu, Kolam, Rangoli, Muhurta etc). The occasional illustrations throughout, further enhance and elevate the book.
