Chaharshanbe Suri at Kian's: In English & Farsi (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798306484839)

Join eight-year-old Kian as he celebrates Chaharshanbe Suri, a vibrant and magical Persian tradition that's part of the Nowruz festivities! At Kian's house, it's a night of jumping over fire, dancing to lively Bandari music, and savoring delicious Ghormeh Sabzi. But this year, the day leading up to the celebration has been anything but fun-Kian didn't make the basketball team, argued with his best friend, and lost his favorite water bottle (again!).

As the festivities begin, Kian's spirits are low, until a heartfelt conversation with his Maman helps him rediscover the true magic of Chaharshanbe Suri: letting go of worries and embracing strength, hope, and new beginnings. With every jump over the fire, Kian feels lighter, braver, and ready to take on whatever comes next.

Filled with warmth, family, and cultural richness, this beautifully illustrated story will inspire young readers to overcome challenges, celebrate their heritage, and find joy in the love of those around them. Perfect for fans of heartfelt, festive tales, Kian and the Fire of Chaharshanbe Suri is a glowing reminder that every day holds the promise of a fresh start.
