Picture book illustrations for Isha Vidhya- pioneering education initiative that seeks to transform the lives of India’s rural poor. This is a story revolving around a young girl and her excitement about Diwali, the festival of lights. Upon hearing the brief of the story, Aparajita could easily relate to the little girl, and approached the illustrations from a very personal level, going down memory lane of past Diwali celebrations at home, eating plenty of sweets and spending time with family.
