I have enjoyed many of Chitra Soundar's books, including her Farmer Falgu picture books, her folktale-inspired collection, Mangoes, Mischief, and Tales of Friendship: Stories from India, and her other Hindu holiday picture book, Shubh Diwali!, so I was excited to track down Holi Hai!. There is a dearth of good children's stories about this festival of colors here in the states, so I was very pleased to see that she had produced one! If found her story here engaging, and think that many young children will be able to relate to Guari's feelings of disappointment, even if the holiday itself is unfamiliar to them. The accompanying artwork from Varma is colorful and cute, in a somewhat cartoon-like way, and adds to the sense of fun, while the author's afterword gives more specifics about the holiday, as well as a glossary of terms used in the book. Recommended to picture book readers and listeners looking for good Holi stories, or children's books with an Indian cultural background. ( )
