Hanukkah Lights
On this night, let us light five little candle fires. Dreidels spin, hope I win; five little candle fires. With this beautifully illustrated book, even the youngest child can take part in the celebration of Hanukkah. Each night, children count the shiny holographic foil flames on the family menorah as they follow the engaging text, based on a traditional holiday song. Additional text included explains the story of the Maccabees and special Hanukkah customs, including latkes and the dreidel game. A perfect accompaniment to family celebrations.

Perfect Presentation of Hanukkah
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
The Hanukkah story is told in terms accessible to young children without the horror of hate being left out. This is an inclusive book, serving not only as a simple counting book (necessarily only to #8) but also covering the traditions of the holiday-family involvement, gift giving, tzedakah (charity)- and the rules of the dreidel game as well. The foil flames highlight the miracle of the oil and the illustrations make, even to the non-Jew, the holiday seem warm and familiar.This book well-serves as a good introduction of a celebration of freedom for any young child.
