These two lift-the-flap books are basic, acceptable introductions to Chanukah and Purim for more observant families. Readers are asked in rhyming couplets to identify figures and holiday trappings; answers, many in Hebrew terms, are under the flap. Purim mitvos and Chanukah activity ideas conclude the books. The cartoon-style illustrations are amiable (perhaps overly) but uninteresting. Glos. Review covers these titles: Chanukah Guess Who? and Purim Guess Who?.
