A Kirkus Reviews best book of the year that is perfect for Hanukkah gift-giving! \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Share this joyous holiday tale of a Jewish immigrant family all year long.\" --\u003ci\u003e Kirkus Review\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe beloved All-of-a-Kind Family comes to life in a picture book perfect for younger readers. Join the five sisters back in 1912, on the Lower East Side of NYC, and watch as preparations for Hanukkah are made. When Gertie, the youngest, is not allowed to help prepare latkes, she throws a tantrum. Banished to the girls' bedroom, she can still hear the sounds and smell the smells of a family getting ready to celebrate. But when Papa comes home she is given the best job of all: lighting the first candle on the menorah.\u003cbr\u003eFirst published in 1951, Taylor's chapter books have become time-honored favorites, selling over a million copies and touching generations of readers. In this time when immigrants often do not feel accepted, the All-of-a-Kind Family gives a heartwarming glimpse of a Jewish immigrant family and their customs that is as relevant--and necessary--today as when it was first written. Jenkins and Zelinsky's charming compliment to Taylor's series perfectly captures the warmth and family values that made the original titles classics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emily Jenkins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dragonfly Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.30h x 9.30w x 0.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798217124930\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudience:\u003c\/b\u003e Ages 4-8\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.8\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e198340 \/ All-Of-A-Kind Family Hanukkah\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEmily Jenkins \u003c\/b\u003ehas written many highly acclaimed books for children, including \u003ci\u003eWater in the Park\u003c\/i\u003e, a Booklist Editors' Choice and a Bulletin Blue Ribbon Book; \u003ci\u003eLemonade in Winter\u003c\/i\u003e, a Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year; and two Boston Globe-Horn Book Honor Books: \u003ci\u003eFive Creatures\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThat New Animal\u003c\/i\u003e.
