Dasher

 


Dasher: How a Brave Little Doe Changed Christmas Forever
By Matt Tavares

From a carnival where people paid to see reindeer to the beautiful, shiny North Pole, Dasher had the hope it took to take a chance and change her destiny. Sneaking out of the fence after a storm, Dasher knew the penalty if she got caught, but also knew her future if she stayed. With stories of the North Pole told to her by her mom, Dasher ran into the woods with a promise of returning one day for her family.

Dasher is a beautiful book of change and hope and resilience. What will hopefully become a true Christmas classic.

Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins

 


Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins
By Eric A. Kimmel

This is one of my ultimate favorites and a Hanukkah classic!! Hershel is a tricky one and sets out to outwit every goblins that keeps the village folks from properly celebrating Hanukkah if his name isn't Hershel of Ostropel! Hershel is a story of never admitting defeat and never giving up and keeping the Hanukkah flame of hope glowing!
