Brief Summary:
This is a creative adaption of the ancient Hanukkah story in which the Syrians forbade the Jews to worship. The Hanukkah Goblins are determined to ruin yet another Hanukkah for the poor villagers. Each year their mission is to snuff out menorah candles and destroy dreidels. But they never count on clever skills of Hershel of Ostropol who manages to outwit them and break the magic spell. This is a warm and humorous story.
