The ultimate Chanukah gift--a glorious celebration of the true spirit of the holiday from a pop-up master and an acclaimed poet.

Rosen's reverent poem, Robert Sabuda's striking pop-ups depict each night's menorah in a different scene, using such imagery as desert tents, olive trees, and a final panorama of skyscrapers.

The paper craft is amazing and the scenes are breathtaking. The menorah's light in each scene is an absolute delight. I have had this book for years and treasure reading it every year.
