All About Hanukkah, Channukah, AND Khanukkah

from Dads on Books · host Michael Walker & David Patrick

In our first holiday episode—well, at least our first episode on a book about a holiday around the same time that the holiday that the book is about falls—anyway here’s our first book about Hanukkah: All about Hanukkah by Judyth Groner and Madeline Wikler, illustrated by Kinny Kreiswirth. Everything you wanted to know about Hanukkah and so much more! Among other things, David doesn't start at the beginning and eventually figures it out. Mike learns the origin story of a scene that David did with Mike's wife Kim in the 1900s, and even Mike learns a thing or two about the history of Hanukkah despite celebrating for many years with his family. The ultimate debate is resolved: when it comes to latke toppings (sour cream or applesauce?), the answer is…take a listen. The episode wraps up with Dad Joke Monday featuring not one, but two Dad Jokes as there are two Dads. So that’s one per dadica. (Latin for “per dad”)Next week? Our first Christmas episode, well our first one near Christmas. If you liked this episode, you’ll love our first one about a Christmas book Olivia Helps with Christmas aka Christmas in May.
