Latkes, Latkes, Good to Eat: A Chanukah Story

(3) K-3 Sadie receives a frying pan from an old woman that cooks potato latkes continuously until stopped by Hanukkah's magic words: "A great miracle happened here." The girl's brothers get hold of the pan, chaos ensues, and the village is practically buried in latkes before Sadie puts a stop to the shenanigans. Cheerful illustrations complement the warmly told story, an original variant of a familiar folkloric motif.
