Description

Filled with bright holiday illustrations, join our hilarious Jewish heroine as she embarks on a quest to reignite her family's Hanukkah spirit in the second book of this chapter book series.
Rachel is determined to make this the happiest Hanukkah ever.
She's carefully planned eight awesome activities for eight perfect nights. But her brother Aaron insists on being a Hanukkah humbug, and his attitude threatens to ruin the holiday. When Aaron’s grumpiness leads to a big accident, Rachel has to figure out how to save her family’s Hanukkah from disaster.
Rachel has plenty of determination, creativity, and holiday spirit—will it be enough to restore the joy of Hanukkah?
