Introduce your little ones to the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah, or Janucá, and how illuminated candles remind us of miracles!

This alphabetical hardcover delves into each letter of the Spanish alphabet to bring to life the many items - from aceite and bendiciones to kugel and tierra - that shed light on the miracle of Hanukkah.

Cassie Gonzales's debut as a children's book artist features colorful illustrations that honor the palette & importance of Hanukkah. Parents will appreciate this bilingual book both for its celebration of Hanukkah, & the way it delves into the cultural, religious, & historical symbolism behind the holiday.
