Our Family Legend

Diwali

A Diwali story that lights up bedtime.

Rows of diyas, a rangoli by the door, sweets for the neighbours and fireworks over the rooftops. Your children star in a Festival of Lights story in the language your family speaks at home.

Popular for Diwali: Hindi, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, or any of our 25 languages. Every page is in English too.
