The Maccabee brothers are always losing their things--cloaks, scrolls and spinning tops. It's a good thing their mom is around to help find the missing items.
But, uh-oh. When the Maccabees defeat the Greek army and take back the Temple, the brothers can't remember where they last saw the jug of oil to light the menorah.
What will their mom say?

"[A] wonderful book that offers several lessons, including to learn about the Jewish miracle at the heart of Hanukkah and to take care of your belongings. There is a subtle, important message as well: stand for something, take action, and even a few people can make a difference. Reviewer Rating: 5" --Children's Literature
