Synopsis
Hanukkah miracles fill the pages of this sparkly foil menorah book! Turn the candle-shaped pages one by one to learn about the eight days of this Jewish holiday and celebrate with blessings, gifts, and family fun.
Susan Hepler, Ph.D. - Children's Literature
A board book features a cut-out rectangle on each page so that when the reader turns the page, a flame shape from the left becomes a candle on the left. In this way, each candle that is added and lit on the menorah provides visual support for what night of Hanukkah is being celebrated. The accurate information in this book seems aimed at an older preschooler than the usual board-book audience but for those children already familiar with the eight days of the Jewish holiday, the book helps refresh or reinforce knowledge of the various customs of the holiday. The flames of each candle are in an eye-catching sparkly foil and each small illustration on the text side of the page features a picture families can talk about. 2005, Little Simon, Ages 2 to 6.

This imaginatively designed board book enables children to follow the eight-night menorah-lighting ritual of Hanukkah by counting the "lit" tinfoil candles on each successive gatefold. With its inviting graphics and carefully written text, this is one of the finest children's books available on Hanukkah.Children's Literature
