Reviews
Noodlenuts
“From Sydney, Australia, to Samarkand, Uzbekistan, to Turin, Italy, Hanukkah Around the World is chock full of fantastic stories, recipes, and interesting facts about the diverse Chanukah traditions of Jewish communities all over the world. A few introductory pages about the holiday and its history and celebration help put the whole thing in context. This is the sort of book that becomes a tradition in itself, referred back to over and over again each year for its fascinating content.”—Noodlenuts
