As each of Hanukkah's first seven nights brings an unusual new present to a little girl, the mystery deepens. While the gifts grandma receives add up to a delicious Hanukkah treat, her granddaughter's gifts don't seem to make much sense. Until the eighth night they finally do!

Industry Reviews

"[A] sweet addition for public and Jewish libraries looking for a fun read to bulk up Hanukkah collections."--School Library Journal

"Bright, cheerful illustrations pair with the sweet story." -- Washington Post on Parenting Blog

"Everin's tale is entertaining and happy and will make a pleasant addition to holiday book shelves. Ashdown's colorful illustrations feature a googly-eyed family and a menorah depicting each night of the holiday. The historical setting of Hanukkah is assumed. Presents for Hanukkah can be both surprising and perfect."-Kirkus

"Pastel-toned illustrations create a sense of happy family celebration."--The Horn Book Magazine

"This playful Hanukkah tale warrants praise for two things in particular: a mystery pet adopted from the animal shelter and a modern Grandma who defies ageist stereotypes with her chic haircut and sparkly scarf." -- Washington Post

"With cheery, identically composed cartoon spreads leading up to the reveal . . . Everin and Ashdown build the suspense for their holiday mystery."--Publishers Weekly
