In this multicultural picture book, Lucky and his best friend are celebrating Holi—the spring Festival of Colors in India. Their color-throwing competition leads them through the city where they throw water balloons and powder in a colorful free-for-all. Back at Lucky’s house, the winner will enjoy the biggest sweet. Children will love the colorful illustrations and culturally authentic story as they learn about a tradition that brings families and communities together.
