With no malice intended towards any other markets, I've always felt that the most wonderful picture books came from my fellow Commonwealth countries. There's just something about the quality and calibre of children's literature out of the UK, Australia, New Zealand, India, etc. that is often a cut above. Well, in terms of Chanukah books, Malachy Doyle and Christopher Corr's gorgeous new "The Miracle of Hanukkah" (2019) certainly hasn't done anything to dissuade me from this opinion! If you're looking for the ideal picture book to explain the exciting origins of the holiday to young kids, full of absolutely beautiful, richly colourful illustrations, and an interesting look at how those origins became today's holiday practices, look no further. "The Miracle of Chanukah" is utterly thorough without ever dragging. It's a wonderful story that happens to be informative, and if I was going to recommend one Chanukah book to buy, this would be it! ⚫ ⚫ ⚫ #noodlenutskidsbooks #jewishnoodlenuts #noodlenutschanukah #themiracleofhanukkah #malachydoyle #christophercorr #chanukah #hanukkah #maccabees #happyholidays #religiousfreedom #newbook #homeschool #religiouseducation #worldreligions #diversebooks #diversitymatters #lessonplanning #classroomlibrary #homeschoolideas https://www.instagram.com/p/B6BnEVgnxQB/?igshid=1gpr86j1687oo
