About the Book

An entrancing and exciting Deepavali celebration story with the Pasumans (Anthropomorphic beings) of Vajra Dvipa. A holiday book for everyone (starting ages 8 and above). Diwali is a serious matter for the Pulis-Adhvika and Aadi. The preparation begins weeks in advance, usually. However, this year, it's different. Due to certain circumstances, they were not ready, despite it being Diwali day. As their friends, the Gajas--Subbu and Sumati, and Jambu, join and help them prepare the house for the festival, things inadvertently become 'Un-Diwali' like. What happens next? Come, explore, and re-discover the true essence of Diwali along with the Pasumans - Adhvika, Aadi, Subbu, Sumati, and Jambu, as they take you on a roller-coaster ride of celebrations, traditions, songs, and festive treats. You surely are in for a Diwali Delight!!!

About the Author :
Siva K. C. Penamakuru was born and raised in the Telugu lands of Southern India. He moved to the U.S. in 2005 for his master's education and now lives there with his family. If not working at his day job as a software professional, Siva spends most of his time with his family reading books, cooking and exploring new cuisines/recipes, and traveling. Festivals and holidays became a crucial part of Siva's cultural moorings growing up, which he cherishes to date. Let There Be Light - A Diwali Story is one such attempt to share his love for the festival of Deepavali with the larger world.
