A Kirkus Reviews best book of the year that is perfect for Hanukkah gift-giving! \"Share this joyous holiday tale of a Jewish immigrant family all year long.\" -- Kirkus Review , starred review The beloved All-of-a-Kind Family comes to life in a new format perfect for younger readers. Join the five sisters back in 1912, on the Lower East Side of NYC, and watch as preparations for Hanukkah are made. When Gertie, the youngest, is not allowed to help prepare latkes, she throws a tantrum. Banished to the girls' bedroom, she can still hear the sounds and smell the smells of a family getting ready to celebrate. But when Papa comes home she is given the best job of all: lighting the first candle on the menorah. First published in 1951, Taylor's chapter books have become time-honored favorites, selling over a million copies and touching generations of readers. In this time when immigrants often do not feel accepted, the All-of-a-Kind Family gives a heartwarming glimpse of a Jewish immigrant family and their customs that is as relevant--and necessary--today as when it was first written. Jenkins and Zelinsky's charming compliment to Taylor's series perfectly captures the warmth and family values that made the original titles classics.","forthcoming":false,"isbn13":"9780399554193","publication_date":"20180911","publisher":"Random House Children's Books","slug":"all-of-a-kind-family-hanukkah","subtitle":"","title":"All-of-a-kind Family Hanukkah"},"discovery":{"categories":{"all":[{"bisac_code":"JUV017110","confidence_band":"high","label":"Holidays & Celebrations / Hanukkah","score":0.8641,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"JUV033020","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Jewish Religious Stories","score":0.8327,"source":"bisac_hint_model"}],"hint":[{"bisac_code":"JUV017110","confidence_band":"high","label":"Holidays & Celebrations / Hanukkah","score":0.8641,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"JUV033020","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Jewish Religious Stories","score":0.8327,"source":"bisac_hint_model"}],"publisher":[{"bisac_code":"JUV007000","confidence_band":"high","label":"The Classics","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"JUV017110","confidence_band":"high","label":"Holidays & Celebrations / Hanukkah","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"JUV039140","confidence_band":"high","label":"Self-Esteem & Resilience","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"}]},"genres":[{"label":"Holidays & Celebrations","score":0.8641,"slug":"holidays-celebrations"},{"label":"Jewish Religious Stories","score":0.8327,"slug":"jewish-religious-stories"}],"reader_fit":["For younger readers interested in Hanukkah traditions"],"related_lists":[],"series":null,"similar_books":[{"authors":["Sydney Taylor"],"book_id":"9780440400592","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9780440400592.jpg?v=37b50c8e3eaa7235","score":0.8389,"title":"All-of-a-kind Family","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9780440400592"},{"authors":["Laurel Snyder"],"book_id":"9780063278141","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9780063278141.jpg?v=3f659430482a7843","score":0.7965,"title":"The Book of Candles","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9780063278141"},{"authors":["Fran Manushkin"],"book_id":"9781623541569","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781623541569.jpg?v=e47d0c747b520a7c","score":0.7788,"title":"Latkes and Applesauce","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781623541569"},{"authors":["Cindy Jin"],"book_id":"9781665921411","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781665921411.jpg?v=e9d38708a5092ad1","score":0.7755,"title":"Happy All-idays!","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781665921411"},{"authors":["Jane Breskin Zalben"],"book_id":"9781623543655","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781623543655.jpg?v=2ed8039bba0b19d6","score":0.7752,"title":"Gingerbread Dreidels","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781623543655"},{"authors":["D.J.
