Timeless and contemporary stories for Hanukkah

Freedom, faith, courage--these are just some of the concepts at the heart of the Jewish celebration of Hanukkah. Noted storyteller Barbara Diamond Goldin offers eight stories, some original and some traditional, that range from many countries and centuries to reflect the significance of the holiday. With one story for each night of Hanukkah, this collection can be shared while the Hanukkah candles burn...and all year long.

"Goldin goes beyond the usual stories of latkes and dreidels to compose tales that beautifully reflect the meaning of the holiday." --The Jewish Week

"[The stories] illuminate and celebrate the spiritual teachings of Judaism....[They] are well chosen and simply told." --Kirkus Reviews
