This contemporary, intergenerational Hanukkah picture book that incorporates both Ashkenazi and Sephardic traditions features text by Newbery Honor and Pura Belpré-winning author Ruth Behar and illustrations by Caldecott Honor-winner Marjorie Priceman.

Luz is helping her Abuelita and Abuelito celebrate the festival of lights, but it’s going to take a miracle to get everything ready in time!

As Luz and Abuelita walk to the bodega for potatoes to make latkes, they talk about the miracle of Hanukkah—and the miracles that surround us. Each of the eight candles represents an everyday miracle like the kindness of community and the tradition of sharing stories. When snow starts to fall, it feels like the wonder of the holiday surrounds them and infuses their preparations and celebration with a special warmth.

In this joyful picture book, award-winners Ruth Behar and Marjorie Priceman have created a modern and accessible Hanukkah classic.

Ruth Behar (RuthBehar.com), the Newbery Honor Award-winning and Pura Belpré Award-winning author of Lucky Broken Girl, Letters from Cuba, and Across So Many Seas, was born in Havana, Cuba, grew up in New York, and has lived in Spain and Mexico. Her work also includes the Sephardic picture book, Tía Fortuna's New Home, poetry, memoir, and the acclaimed travel books, An Island Called Home and Traveling Heavy, as well as the joyous picture book, Pepita Meets Bebita, co-authored with her son, Gabriel Frye-Behar. She was the first Latina to win a MacArthur "Genius" Grant, and other honors include a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship and being named a "Great Immigrant" by the Carnegie Corporation. An anthropology professor at the University of Michigan, she lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Marjorie Priceman is the author and illustrator of many books for children including the bestselling How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World, which was turned into a musical. She has received two Caldecott Honors—for Hot Air: The (Mostly) True Story of the First Hot-Air Balloon Ride and for Zin! Zin! Zin! A Violin by Lloyd Moss. She lives in Pennsylvania.
