Book Launch

& Holi Festival

April 5, 2025

Big Ideas,

Real impact

The launch of our first book ‘A Rocket To Belonging’ about a half-Indian boy, coincided with the Indian harvest festival, “Holi” or known in the West as ‘The Festival of Colors’. Combining the two bought a real word embodiment of the diversity of “color’ of Hawaii that Keiki Stories aims to represent.
