The city is abuzz with fanfare and fervour,
Giant idols under wraps, ready to be unfurled,
Colourful pandaals receive finishing touches
To host the biggest outdoor festival in the world!
Celebrate the homecoming of a loving daughter,
Victory of the goddess and a demon's defeat,
See how Ma Durga outshone even the mighty gods
How a woman achieved an impossible feat!

The book is great, my 2 - The book is great, my 2.5 year old absolutely loves it! Very annoyed that the MRP of this book is shown to be 950 Rs. when in fact it is only 350 and I ended up paying more than that! I should have just gone to a book store and picked it up.
