Susheela told the pilots how to

          dip, dive and turn their planes...

          ... and in minutes there was a big,

          beautiful and colourful kolam in

          the sky, that everyone in the city
          could see!




                                                                             That night, Susheela stood

                                                                             on her terrace and looked

                                                                             up at the sky.

                                                                             She saw the stars

                                                                             twinkling down at her.


                                                                             Where do you think
                                                                             Susheela will make her

                                                                             next kolam?
