Description
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.

The name joins the founders' youngest children: Madeline's daughter Karen and Judye's son Ben. From Rockville, Maryland, the pair built Kar-Ben into a home for Jewish picture books, earning the Sydney Taylor Book Award committee's Body of Work honor, before Lerner Publishing Group bought the press. It now publishes from Minneapolis and calls itself the largest publisher of exclusively Jewish-themed children's books in the world, covering holidays, life-cycle moments, folktales, Israel and Jewish history. ModernTribe carries Hanukkah and Purim picture books like Golem Loves Latkes and The Queen Who Saved Her People, the My Family Haggadah board book, and the yearly Executive Jewish Calendar.
