Will delight children ages 3-6 everywhere

"A Chanukah Story for Night Number Three" is a rollicking, rhyming Chanukah tale about a birthday boy who is determined to make his special Chanukah Night Number Three birthday even more spectacular by making the biggest, most delicious potato latke ever. Reissued since its first printing in 1989, "A Chanukah Story for Night Number Three" is poised to enchant and delight a whole new generation. Full of hyperbole and humor, "Chanukah Story" also educates effortlessly, with its early glossary (on page 1) of special Chanukah terms and sayings, and also with its cunningly hidden moral, something like "Sharing good things makes them better!" Also at the end of "Chanukah Story" is a real recipe for latkes, not just for hundreds of people, but for a family. The delightful cartoon-like illustrations and rascally rhythms keep "A Chanukah Story" zipping straight through until morning, and the final winking epithet: "So I wrote all that happened for you to read, too/ If you want to believe it - well, that's up to you!" "A Chanukah Story for Night Number Three" will delight children ages 3-6 everywhere.

Yummm

My kids adore this book - they read it all year round! The story's focus on sharing and good deeds helps take attention away from the material aspects of Chanukah. I can't say enough good things about this book!
