This fabulous creation features double-sided fold-out pages retelling the story of Chanukah. The 1991 book was such a success that it was reprinted.The first fold-out of a large menorah, explains the key symbol of Chanukah, and its history. In the Temple's sanctuary was a seven-branched, oil-burning menorah that shown day and night until the Temple's desecration by the Greek soldiers of King Antiochus. When Judah Maccabee recaptured the Temple, he found a small container of purified oil, only enough for one day. One of the miracles of Chanukah was that this oil, when lighted, lasted for eight days, which is why this festival also lasts eight days.The second fold-out offers children a sumptuous pop-up of the Temple, but shows the Greeks inside it, feasting and making merry in the Jews' Holiest place.The third pop-up offers a recreation of the battle that Judah Maccabee fought to retake Jerusalem and the Temple.The book also offers pages on the rededication of the Temple and Chanukah around the world, as well as a paper dreidel that kids can put together themselves. This book is a delight. Alyssa A. Lappen
