"Este abecedario explora cada letra del abecedario español para cobrarle vida a las muchas cosas -desde el aceite y las bendiciones hasta el kugel y la tierra-- que iluminan el milagro del Janucá. Lectores observarán las familias encendiendo la menorá, jugando el dreidel, escuchando la historia del Janucá y disfrutando del sufganiyot y los latkes para ocho noches hermosas."--Translation of publisher's description.
This alphabet book 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. Observe families lighting the menorah, spinning the dreidel, hearing the Hanukkah story, and indulging in latkes and sufganiyot for eight precious nights. Parents will appreciate this bilingual English-Spanish hardcover due to the celebration of Hanukkah, but also for the cultural, religious, and historical symbolism behind the Jewish holiday that occurs around the same season as Christmas and holds a special meaning in the multicultural Latin-Jewish community.
