Series: From the Toddler Diaries

"It's time for Onam, a 10-day harvest festival celebrated widely in the Indian state of Kerala with a lot of fun, food and festivities! Travel with Riya to ""God's Own Country"" and learn how and why we celebrate Onam. Join her at the enchanting snake boat races, watch a beautiful flower arrangement take shape, and enjoy the delicious Onasadya feast while learning about the great King Mahabali. Step into this book and watch Onam come alive!

'From The Toddler Diaries' is a series of illustrated books which celebrates the spectrum of Indian festivals as experienced by a child. Presented in poetry and color, the books are designed to drape parents and children in vivid hues of India's cultural fabric. The inspiration behind this collection comes from an appreciation of a child's clarity in perception, which becomes magical because of its simplicity.

Other books in this series - Celebrate Durga Puja With Me! & Celebrate Holi With Me!

Shoumi Sen's Celebrate With Me! books are always a delight and Celebrate Onam With Me! is a lovely addition to the series. As a reader, we feel drawn into the festival, the joy, the colors, and the celebrations...the book is true to how Onam is celebrated by people from Kerala all over the world...

King Mahabali would approve!

Preethi Chandrasekhar, Founder, Toka Box

The books created by From The Toddler Diaries are a treat for both adults and children, and this is no exception.

Raya Rahman, Founder and Editor, Guba Publishing

This sweet book invites children everywhere to join the festivities during Onam. Vivid illustrations and rhyming text infuse the book with joy, capturing the happiness of coming together to celebrate special occasions as a community.
