A Hanukkah story with festive activities

David A. Adler’s retelling introduces the story of the Maccabees and the oil that, according to the Hanukkah tradition presented here, burned for eight nights. The book connects that account with holiday customs: its illustrations depict the battle, the Temple of Jerusalem, and the oil, while a latke recipe and dreidel-game directions extend the subject to familiar celebrations at home. The combination gives the book both a narrative focus and practical ways to explore Hanukkah traditions.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children beginning to learn about Hanukkah
  • Families sharing a Hanukkah story and simple holiday activities

Book overview

Hanukkah is a wonderful time filled with games, food, family, and fun.

It's also the celebration of an ancient miracle, and retelling and remembering the story of that miracle is an essential part of the holiday, for young and old. The story of the courageous Maccabees is retold in simple yet dramatic text, accompanied by vibrant paintings of the battle, the Temple of Jersualem, and the oil which miraculously burned for eight long nights.

A traditional recipe for latkes is included, as are directions for the dreidel game, for readers who want to continue the festivities at home.
