Format:Paperback
I'm so pleased with not only this book, but the entire series. I am a godmother to a friend's son, which is odd considering I don't adhere to any particular religion. So instead of sending books on one religion, I send him books about all of them! Great fun. This book is a bit oversimplistic in that it leaves important stuff out, but it's certainly age appropriate and the pictures are appealing.

Nice Book Series on World Holidays!
30 Nov 2004
Format:Paperback
This book deals with Chaunukah in a simple nice way. It is a good introduction for the holiday for novices. I really like this series and own the books on Ramadan and Diwali also. Good for kids K-3.
