Bookroo's summary
A young girl eagerly anticipates her family's road trip from Virginia to Florida, where they join her grandparents for a sun-soaked Hanukkah. Amidst picking fruit and dancing salsa, they savor the joy of making latkes and buñuelos. Will this holiday bring unexpected surprises and deepen their bonds?
From the publisher
Celebrate Hanukkah with Family! Every December, a little girl in Virginia looks forward to receiving a crate of oranges from her grandparents in Miami, but this year is even better. The family is taking a driving trip to visit Nonna and Nonno in Florida! At Nonna and Nonno’s house, they pick grapefruit and oranges under the sun. They dance the salsa and play in the waves at the beach. Best of all, they celebrate Hanukkah together. The girls help Nonna make latkes, and buñuelos stuffed with almonds and guava jelly. It’s eight days of light and love.
