Celebrate Hanukkah with this year’s newest books for the young and the young at heart. These family-friendly titles are available now in the Museum Store.
Honeyky Hanukah by Woody Guthrie – A funny celebration of Hanukkah you can tap your toes to? In this Woody Guthrie story a young boy and his dog move merrily from house to house, gathering up family and friends for a big feast. The delightful story is accompanied by a CD featuring Guthrie’s song recorded by noted “alternative Klezmer” band the Klezmatics.
Daddy Christmas and Hanukkah Mama by Selina Alko – The holidays at Sadie’s house can come with golden gelt sparkling under the Christmas tree, candy canes hanging from a menorah and latkes awaiting Santa’s arrival. A mixed media collage serves as a backdrop for an inventive story of a blended family bridging the gap between religions and traditions.
Cleveland TV Tales by Mike and Janice Olszewski – Remember when TV was just three channels? Local celebrities like Ghoulardi, Barnaby, Dorothy Fuldheim, Paige Palmer, Captain Penny and Romper Room’s Miss Barbara were the talk of the town. Revisit the heyday of local programming with these fun, fact-filled stories.
