Its about children to know how and why diwali is celebrated

1. The story of Rama and Sita

2. A good man, called Rama, was
married to a beautiful princess,
called Sita.

3. They had been banished to live in the
forest with his brother, Lakshman, by
his stepmother, as she wanted her
son to be King.

4. Ravana, the Demon king with ten
heads, heard of Sita’s beauty and
goodness and planned to kidnap her.
By magic, he conjured up a golden
fawn. She asked Rama to capture it

5. The demon king disguised himself as
an old man and tricked Sita. He
kidnapped her and flew away on his
chariot back to his island, Lanka.

6. Rama and Lakshman searched many
months for Sita. Finally, they asked
Hanuman, king of the monkey army,
for help. Hanuman could fly.

7. He found Sita imprisoned on the island
of Lanka. Hanuman, Rama and
Lakshman prepared themselves for
battle.

8. This was one of the greatest battles
ever seen. The fighting lasted for ten
whole days.

9. It looked as though Ravana was
going to win, until Rama borrowed a
special bow and arrow from the
gods. Rama shot Ravana and the
battle was won.

10. Rama rescued Sita and they decided to go home. As
it got dark, the people of the kingdom put out little
oil lamps (divas) in their windows to show the way
home.
It seemed as though there were
more lamps than stars in the sky.

11. Everyone was happy and Rama and
Sita ruled well. Now every year
people remember this story at Divali
by lighting diva lights inside their
homes and fireworks outside.
