Readers join a cute family and their dog as they light the menorah, eat latkes, unwrap gifts, sing songs, play dreidel, eat chocolate Hanukkah gelt, and march like Maccabees during the eight nights of Hanukkah in this cute 12-page board book. Includes "3D-feeling"art by Viviana Garofoli.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this board book, a companion to 2014's Shabbat Is Coming!, rhythmic verse follows a family as its members light the menorah, fry latkes, enjoy dreidels and gelt, and spend time together during Hanukkah. The title repeats as a refrain after each of Newman's gentle rhymes, giving the book a soothing structure: "Winter is near./ Long nights are here./ Hanukkah is coming./ All in a row/ Our candles will glow./ Hanukkah is coming." Skillful use of drop shadows brings a subtle three-dimensional quality to Garofoli's crisp digital illustrations, while the images' canvaslike textures are suggestive of the homey closeness of the family's Hanukkah's celebrations. Ages 1 4.
