A USA Today bestseller!
Get ready for the most magical holiday ever, with this dazzling picture book debut from New York Times bestselling author Sarah Mlynowski that Laura Numeroff, #1 bestselling author of If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, called a "delightful, brightly colored celebration of Hanukkah." Destined to be a new holiday classic!
On the first night of Hanukkah, my parents gave me a dragon...
So begins Hannah's holiday adventure, as she receives eight magical presents -- one for each night. There's a playful dragon, a gleaming treasure chest, a time travel machine, some rowdy unicorns... and much more. But are the gifts what they seem to be? When Hannah gathers with family and friends to light the menorah, play dreidel, and eat delicious latkes, she'll discover the true magic of the Festival of Lights.
Written with sparkling wit and wisdom by New York Times bestselling author Sarah Mlynowski (Whatever After; Upside-Down Magic), and illustrated with vivid, enchanting art by Ariel Landy, this inventive story celebrates both Hanukkah and the power of a child's imagination.
Includes fun, accessible backmatter that defines key Hanukkah terms!
