Charming and Clever

his clever Hanukkah picture book celebrates the holiday with a fun new twist. Every family has their own holiday traditions, and Ruthie's family has a Hanukkah pajama party at the end of the holiday. When Ruthie receives her Hanukkah themed pajamas along with her other presents on the first night of the holiday, she loves them so much that she wants to wear them for the whole eight days. Although she is warned to try and keep them spotless until the party, accidents happen. All the family activities like cooking latkes, eating sufganiyot (Jelly Doughnuts) and chocolate gelt, lighting the candles and various crafts each cause a messy stain on her pj's. But through it all, Ruthie keeps a positive attitude. Her pajamas dont have SPOTs, but streaks and splotches! This charming story which shows a variety of Hanukkah activists, highlight the fact that it is a family holiday. I love the fact that her parents support her desire to wear the pajamas the whole time and accept all the mishaps. The funny story is made that much better with the fantastic colorful illustrations by Olga and Aleksey Ivanov. Their pictures always make a book that much more fun. This book would make a fantastic Hanukkah gift to any Jewish youngster!

Fun and festive

A fun and festive picture book about celebrating traditions. Learn about the Jewish holiday in a creative and kid-friendly way. Also a great opportunity to discuss the word 'spotless'. What exactly does that word mean? Are streaks and splotches considered spots? Are sparkly and spotty the same thing? This book is messy, lively, and lots of fun.

Sweet Hanukkah story for messmakers!

A sweet Hanukkah story celebrating the best-intentioned messmakers in every family! A great introduction to Jewish family traditions for non-Jewish readers. A funny story that celebrates holiday tradition, sibling relationships, and creative kids that all families can relate to! Highly recommend!

Hanukkah fun!

What a fun Hanukkah book! Ruthie is a delightful main character who is determined to wear her "pajamakkahs" all eight days and nights instead of saving them for the final night of Hanukkah. She rolls with every splotch and streak, refusing to let a little muck get in the way of her holiday fun. Highly recommend!

Darling story about Hanukkah and pajamas

Very cute story about a kid who can't wait to wear her special pajamaakkahs until the big night and tries her hardest (sort of) to keep them clean. A fun celebration of Hanukkah and pajamas.
