Wake up, it's Holi! Sameer and his family are preparing to celebrate Holi and the beginning of spring! Scrumptious sweet and savory treats fill platters, and a rainbow of powdered colors is set out. Everyone is ready for the bright and messy festivities ahead. But young Sameer gets nervous seeing his sisters start throwing colors and water balloons at each other. Noticing Sameer's fears and wanting him to celebrate in the bright and messy colors of spring, his family comes up with a silly solution... Excitement, history, and traditions abound in this vibrant celebration of Holi. Complete with a glossary of Hindu words and delicious recipes.
