About this book
Jack Frost has sent his naughty goblins to steal Hana the Hanukkah Fairy’s magic candle. Without it, Rachel’s friend Abigail will have a ruined Hanukkah. What’s more, a goblin is pretending to be Rachel and saying that she doesn’t care that Abigail’s upset. Luckily, with a dusting of fairy magic, Rachel and Kirsty transform into tiny fairies and set about righting the wrongs with Hana.
With friendship and inclusion at the heart of this story, this chapter book is both a gentle magical adventure and a charming introduction to the traditions of Hanukkah for those who don’t know them. Perfect for newly confident readers.
