Synopsis
Here's the magical story of Holi--the Indian festival of colors in all its glory, as told to Klaka, a little boy, by his Amma, with a lot of joy. First, a story of colors and fun. Naughty young Krishna and Radha, his loved one. Next, we celebrate the end of an evil fraud. A monstrous king, who thought he was God. He threatened his own son, who did not think him divine, but against the evil king, faith and miracles did align. A story of faith, devotion, and love, passed down to children, from generations above.

Biographie de l'auteur
Bhakti Mathur grew up in Delhi, India. She lives in Hong Kong, a city that she absolutely adores, with her husband, her two sons, Shiv and Veer, and their beloved golden Labrador, Frodo. She is a banker by profession and currently works for a major Asian Bank.
Bhakti's love for books started from a young age. Her mother was a librarian and as a child she landed up spending many hours in the library - books proved to be great and inexpensive baby sitters! The idea for the 'Amma, Tell Me' series of books came as a way to introduce her sons to Indian mythology and festivals.
When not writing, working or running after her boys, she is happiest curled up with a book and a hot cup of chai.
Revue de presse
'Amma, Tell Me About Holi is a remarkable book for children, parents and grandparents alike. It's part of a series of books that charmingly introduces children to the major festivals that play an important part in the Hindu religion. Although it is aimed, primarily, at Hindu children and their parents it will be widely welcomes by all parents, grandparents and children who like to learn about the world that surrounds them.' --That's Books and Entertainment
