Hanukkah
From the Series On My Own Holidays
The story of Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights, takes readers back more than two thousand years in history. Understand why Jews gather to light candles for eight nights each year. Discover what a dreidel and menorah are for, and who the Maccabees were. Celebrated each year to remember the destruction and restoration of the temple, a war for freedom, and a miracle, Hanukkah is a special and important holiday for Jews around the world.
