"There are very few easy chapter books with Jewish content. This is
one that will appeal to any reader, Jewish or not, despite a
reference to the Maccabees before their role is fully explained."
-- Association of Jewish Libraries-- (11/12/2019 12:00:00 AM)
"This enchant-i-ng book is illus-trat-ed in a cheer-ful, bright
style which adds to the fun. Chil-dren of today will learn that
Hanukkah is less about gifts and more about iden-ti-ty, brav-ery,
and determination." --Jewish Book Council-- (8/12/2019 12:00:00
AM)
"This exciting retelling of the Hanukkah story should appeal to
both Jewish and non-Jewish children."―Kirkus Reviews-- (6/11/2019
