Not just for kids!

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago

It's rare enough to find a book that is also a work of art in and of itself, but a children's book with such high artistic standards is a unique accomplishment. Hanukkah: A Counting Book is a delight to explore, and is guaranteed to entertain adults as well as children. Children will love the fun graphics as they learn to count while absorbing the meaning of the holiday, and parents will be intrigued with the unique logic of the text and graphics, which are woven together in a creative structure which unfolds progressively, much as the holiday itself unfolds from night to night.

What a beautiful book! The bright colors and great illustrations can keep anyone, even over the age of eight, interested. Kids and parents both can learn more about Judaism, Chanukah, Hebrew and Yiddish in a fun way. A great debut for Emily Sper.

Bright, Colorful, Grows With Your Child!

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago

The bright colors and clear illustrations immediately attracted my two year old son. He flipped through the pages, identifying the numbers and pictures that he knew. As we read it together, I started to introduce the pictures that he was unfamiliar with, and some of the Hebrew and Yiddish words. As he grows, I can teach him more of the different languages, and read the Hannukah story with him. I think this is a beautiful book, one that my son will use and learn from for years to come.
