Werewolves don’t celebrate Hanukkah. This is a shame, because they would be rather good at it.
Review
Let’s start by saying I’m utterly ignorant of Jewish culture. So, after briefly researching what a latke or Ma‘oz Tzur is, I could learn more about Hanukkah traditions.
Thanks to this book, I know socks are the traditional Hanukkah gift, but do you know what would also make a perfect gift (especially for the little ones)? This book.
This is a short picture book full of funny and expressive werewolf illustrations by J. Burrello. People familiar with the customs will be able to enjoy all the references. I liked the charm and had fun learning more about Hanukkah. Awoo!
PSA: Don’t feed chocolate to your werewolves.
