Hanukkah Lights

Lee Bennett Hopkins anthologizes a dozen short poems (the longest only 16 lines) about Hanukkah for very young readers, including Ann Whitford Paul's Spinning Hanukkah: I spin poems of Hanukkah/ my dreidel twirls them fast./ The menorah candles flicker/ to help me make them last. Lillian Fisher, Maria Fleming, Michele Krueger, Avis Harley, Sandra Gilbert Brug, Peggy Robbins Janousky, Phillip J. Teitbohl, and Jane Yolen contribute festive poems. Soft paintings accompany the text. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
