Join Ronak and his family for the Hindu festival of bright blessings in this heartwarming story of sibling love and friendship.

One Diwali Day: Festivals of the World invites readers to experience the Hindu festival of lights and enlightenment, a joyous occasion filled with traditions and celebrations. Discover the vibrant creation of rangolis with colourful powders and chalk, don new outfits, indulge in delicious sweets, and enjoy visits from friends and family. Cap off the day with stunning fireworks that illuminate the night.

Despite all the festivities, Ronak's enjoyment is dampened by the absence of his big sister, Dadi, and he wonders if she will make it home in time to partake in all the rituals and special moments of the evening. Relief comes when Dadi arrives, allowing Ronak’s heart to rejoice fully and shine brilliantly.

From the creators of Rosh Hashanah, this warm and beautifully illustrated sequel in a budding series about festivals concludes with Diwali-themed craft activities, offering readers an interactive experience to celebrate the festival.

About the Author

Dev Kothari grew up in a sleepy hamlet near Mumbai, where she read obsessively, wrote furtively, and daydreamed endlessly. In 2018, she won the Commonword Diversity Young Adult Fiction Prize, then went on to earn an MA in writing for young people at Bath Spa University. Bringing Back Kay-Kay was her debut novel. Dev Kothari lives in North London.

Aditi Anand, an illustrator from India, was the winner of a Picture This! Illustration competition in the UK. She says, “My work passionately reflects my origins. I love working with mixed media and am drawn to stories with strong emotional undertones. I enjoy being indoors, sipping chai, and drawing everyday life in my sketchbook.” Aditi Anand lives in Cambridgeshire, England.
