Praise for Celebrate Hanukkah: How to Light Up Your Holiday
This is a great guide! I love the pictures you used. The book looks so clean and easy to follow. I love how you broke it up. I love that you give recipes and suggestions for where to find music. I NEVER remember which side to put the candles in and where to start lighting! Your book is a lifesaver!! – Sarah Barrett, author of A Mom’s Guide to School Fundraising, CA
I just got finished reading through the Hanukkah guide and LOVED it! I found it very straightforward and easy to read. I particularly like the step-by-step approach. I also appreciate the section that teaches us how to light the candles properly. I truly appreciate your taking the time to share your faith with all of us. – Catherine, World Religions Teacher
Celebrate Hanukkah’ is a great walk-through of the holiday, especially good for families with young children. It provides a straight-forward explanation of the history, food, parts and pieces, games, blessings and songs. Also included are helpful and fun ideas of ways to enrich the holiday. I highly recommend this guide! – Doreen
I’m a Christian, but I believe that we should understand Jewish celebrations. Your Hanukkah e-guide helped explain things I had wondered, like what candles had to do with the oil, and how did latkes come in to play. Very cool! – Amanda Sue Howell
