I’m back! I can’t stay away during the holiday season because I just have to share my favorite holiday children’s books! I loved reading books to my second graders books about all of the different December holidays. It was so fun getting the book boxes out and putting them on the shelves. Each year there was more and more! It was getting a little out of hand. The last year one of my students said three times, “Whoah, that’s a lot of books!”
Well, today I want to share my favorite Hanukkah books! Take a look, click on any of the titles or you can click on the images in the collage to get more information about each book.
