In this Hanukkah story, The Candle Maker, young Ezra learns the meaning behind making candles with his mother — and the miracle of sharing light with others. As Ima tells the ancient story of the Maccabees and the Golden Menorah, Ezra discovers that every act of kindness can make the world a little brighter. Perfect for families celebrating Hanukkah, teachers exploring Jewish traditions, or anyone looking for a peaceful bedtime story filled with warmth, courage, and connection.
