Devils turn Hannukah night in Brisk topsy-turvy until the Rabbi turns it into fun.

I got this book partly to balance out the Christmas books in our library. We're not religious, and in North America Christianity is "the norm". We celebrate a secular Christmas (for lack of a better word - Santa day?). I feel that my kids should learn about lots of different religions.

The other reason I picked it up was for the illustrations. I'm a sucker for great children's book illustrations! The little demons are very well done. My kids really enjoy seeing each shape the demons take as they try to trick the Rabbi.

It's a cute story with a heartwarming message, even for the secular family. ( )
