(3) K-3 Illustrated by Elisa Vavouri. Artist Misha doesn't have much but shares milk with the cat he finds in his barn. He can't afford candles, but he has paint and talent enough to add flames to a menorah on a canvas for a bright Hanukkah with his new friend. Stein's voice echoes Jewish folktale cadences; Vavouri's rich-hued illustrations are reminiscent of Chagall's work. A hamish, old-fashioned Hanukkah story.
