Latke, the Lucky Dog

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tiphanie Beeke. On the first night of Hanukkah, a family adopts a golden-brown dog and names him Latke. As the family celebrates the Festival of Lights, Latke joins in, thinking, "I am one lucky dog!" But he has a lot to learn about how to behave. This engaging romp highlights the holiday's traditions and the love between dog and family. Cheerful, textured illustrations capture Latke's mischief.
