About the Author:
Mitali Banerjee Ruths is the author of The Party Diaries series and Archie Celebrates Diwali. She grew up in a big Indian family. She is an American living in Canada who sometimes still dreams about being an astronaut.
About the Book:
Kindhearted Archie is back! Her Poppy Uncle is getting married in a big Indian wedding, and Archie and new friend Emma realize that love and fun are universal.
In this cross-cultural friendship story, Archie helps Emma, who isn’t Indian, learn everything she needs to know when Archie’s Poppy Uncle and Emma’s Auntie Julie get married. The girls go to the mehendi party and sangeet together. They help Julie at the wedding, steal Poppy’s shoes, and eat ladoos at the reception. Now Archie and Emma are friends—and cousins!
Archie’s adventures celebrate Indian culture! We first met Archie in Archie Celebrates Diwali and now join her in the follow-up Archie Celebrates an Indian Wedding. Backmatter in Archie’s books feature kid-friendly resources to enrich the reading experience.
