In our house we always do a Hanukkah read-aloud for each night of Hanukkah — we love Herschel and the Hanukkah Goblins the best, but also really love Simon and the Bear, the Ninth Night of Hanukkah, Hanukkah Hamster and The Missing Letters. For a great middle-grade read, I really enjoyed Dreidels on the Brain.

Hi Melissa,
LOVE your site!!
Do you know “Dear Santa, Love, Rachel Rosenstein” ?
It’s a sweet story of a little girl who …despite being Jewish…longs for the lights and ornaments of Christmas. She ends up celebrating her own…and other…cultures.

Please add Jacqueline Jules to your list of Jewish picture book authors. Her newest “Light the Menorah! A Hanukkah Handbook” is poetry and information for all ages starting with 4 year olds.
