A Wild, Wild Hanukkah
by Jo Gershman (Author, Illustrator) and Bob Strauss (Author)
@ Amazon* | Bookshop*

Booktalk: On the first night of Hanukkah, the door flies open and a perky polar bear walks into the house, shaking the snow from his fur. On the second night of Hanukkah, two crusty, crying crocodiles peel onions, followed the next night by three toothy tigers who’ve come to pluck potatoes from a sack. Every night more wild animals join the party, singing, making latkes, and spinning dreidels. As Hanukkah comes to an end, the stars twinkle, and the candles burn out. Then it’s time for bed.

@ Amazon | Bookshop

Booktalk: Warm up inside Mr. Klaus’s cozy cottage, share cocoa with a friendly polar bear, and take a peek inside the toymakers’ workshop to meet Mr. Klaus’s tiniest secret helpers on their busiest night of the year. This board book set includes three rhyming toddler books–Mr. Klaus’s House, Polar Bear’s Nook, and Toymakers’ Workshop–tucked into a trifold case with magnetic closure.

Snippet:
Each morning Mr. Klaus rocks in his chair,
Sipping cocoa with buddies, Mouse and Polar Bear.
