What is Hanukkah?<\/h2>\n

Hanukkah is the festival of the lights. It is a small Jewish holiday that lasts eight nights of lighting candles. It commemorates the rededication of the temple after it was desecrated by the Syrians.<\/p>\n

It has fun activities with lighting the candles on the menorah, dreidels, chocolate coins, and latkes to name a few parts of Hanukkah.<\/p>\n

\n\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins<\/a> is a fun book about the lighting of the candles and celebrating Hanukkah when Holiday hating Goblins don’t want them to celebrate. I love stories by Eric Kimmel. They are always fun and creative!<\/p>\n

Maccabee!: The Story of Hanukkah<\/a> has a great ryhming in telling the story of gaining their freedom back from the Greeks.

\"Maccabee!:<\/a><\/p>\n

Eight Winter Nights: A Family Hanukkah Book<\/a> is a great book with small poems for each part of Hanukkah. Each night has a different poem and something fun to learn.
\n\"Eight<\/a><\/p>\n

How Do Dinosaurs Say Happy Chanukah?<\/a> is a great story about Dinosaurs and how they should behave on Hanukkah. I love all the series of these type of books. It is great to show them what to do and not to do.
\n\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Dinosaur On Hanukkah<\/a> is a great way of telling about each part of Hanukkah with Dinosaurs. My girls love dinosaur books. Something fun for early learners that are into dinosaurs.<\/p>\n

\"Dinosaur<\/a><\/p>\n

Latkes, Latkes, Good to Eat: A Chanukah Story<\/a> is a great story about a magic pan that makes latkes and what happens to the pan. I love stories like these.<\/p>\n

\"Latkes,<\/a><\/p>\n

Latke, the Lucky Dog<\/a> is another great story book for Hanukkah. It is about a rescue dog. He is rescued the first night of Hanukkah. And you learn about recues and a little about Hanukkah as well.<\/p>\n

My First Hanukkah Board Book<\/a>\"\" is a typcial DK Book. It has all the items from Hanukkah in a simple way with great pictures. It covers the story of the Maccabee’s, Hanukkah Food, Dreidel, and the Menorah.<\/p>\n

Hanukkah: A Counting Book In English – Hebrew – Yiddish<\/a>\"\" is in English, Hebrew and Yiddish. Each of the words if broken down so that it is easy to learn. The girls liked counting the candles and seeing the different words.<\/p>\n

Ultimate Sticker Book: Hanukkah (Ultimate Sticker Books)<\/a>\"\" is similar to the board book but you get to put stickers on the book and then read it. It is fun and something you can read later.<\/p>\n
