Hanukkah Cookies with Sprinkles

By David A. Adler

Book Overview

"A sweet and compassionate introduction to an important Jewish custom." --Kirkus Reviews

Sydney Taylor Notable Book Award.

Sara watches from her apartment window as her mom goes to
work. One day, she sees an old man pick up a bruised apple from the discarded
pile next to Sol's Market. Why would he do that? She wonders if he's
hungry, as she eats her own breakfast. She wonders if he's lonely, as she
shares Shabbat dinner with Mom and Grandma.

As Hanukkah approaches, a season of light and hope, Sara
discovers that tzedakah can be as bright and colorful as a Hanukkah
cookie with sprinkles.
