Jeanne Modesitt and Robin Spowart are a husband-and-wife team who live and work in Utah. They have written and illustrated several beloved children?s books.
PreSchool-Grade 1-A family of mice celebrate Hanukkah through a variety of activities, including lighting the menorah, eating latkes, and dancing the horah. At the end of the evening, the little creatures settle down to sweet dreams. A single rhyming line accompanies each illustration. "We gather round real close,/to the light we give a toast./We listen to a tale;/our imaginations sail!" The drawings done in simple black line and basic colors have an unstudied look, as they show the family engaged in one activity or another. Although neither the pictures nor the text are particularly outstanding (basically, all the mice look alike), together they make a pleasant combination. A one-page history of the holiday, information about lighting the menorah, several Hanukkah blessings, a latke recipe, directions for the dreidel game, and the song "O Hanukkah" are appended. A serviceable addition.-M.M.H.
