Happy Diwali, happy lights day

Originally to celebrate the harvests and the fall, the festival of Divali, also called Diwali or Deepavali (Hindi: दीपावली (Dīpāvalī) or दिवाली (Divālī)), is a major festival in the Indian and Hindu world.

A Hindu festival taking place from November 2-6, with its main holiday today on November 4, Diwali is a festival celebrating lights. This year is also a good time for charitable actions. It is now also an opportunity for sharing, solidarity and gratitude.

Take this opportunity to share the beauty of this holiday with children thanks to the book Archie Celebrates Diwali by Montreal writer Mitali Banerjee Ruths.

Turn the lights on and have fun!
