What a sweet, welcoming invitation to learn about Chanukah. Baby Tiger invites his friends Baby Bear and Baby Elephant to celebrate the first night of Chanukah with his family and they learn all about the meaning of the celebration and will surely remember it with all the delicious food that was served and the engrossing dreidel game that was played. And...they even got to take goodies home to their families, along with their own dreidels and gold covered chocolate coins. Totally lovely in presentation and sentiment.So why the four stars? A few formatting issues at the very beginning prevented a smooth entry to the story itself and I was disturbed by the inconsistency of verb tense in that the author went from past to present tense and back again without reason. But this may not bother anyone else and certainly doesn't take away from the lovely, warm and gracious feeling the reader is left with after the story ends. Definitely recommended reading. Your child will love and learn from it.
