There are so many different cultures, traditions, and religions which in turn make all students have different holiday's. Most little ones don't realize that other people do different things they think what they do for a holiday is what everyone does. This is a great book to open the discussion of the different types of holiday's that people celebrate and why they celebrate them. What a fun unit.

This book does a nice job of explaining the Hanukkah tradition and its origins and the story is pretty good as well. I feel like this story could be relatable for middle elementary though it might only be interesting for the most patient and engaged audience. It's a pretty strait forward narrative. I enjoyed it though, and for the reader that is truly interested in gaining a grasp on the meaning and intent of this Jewish holiday, this will certainly do the trick. (

This story is about a modern Jewish family celebrating Hanukkah. They have only a little oil to make their "Hanukkah treats" every night, so they hope for a miracle--that the oil will last. The father gives a quick background on the history of Hanukkah, and the reader sees the family celebrate with the menorah, candles, gifts, dreidel, and special treats. (

The story of Hunukkah and the miracle of the oil that lasted for eight days is told to the children in this family as they celebrate the holiday. And alongside the historical story, they have their own miracle jar of oil, for there is not enough oil to make eight days' worth of holiday treats. Will the family's jar of miracle oil surprise them, just as it did their ancestors?

Hear about this book from the actual publisher on The Book of Life Podcast's coverage of the Book Expo America conference. Listen online at www.bookoflifepodcast.com, the "Brand Spanking New" June 2008 episode.
