"Flying Latke" by William Steig tells the whimsical story of a little latke (a potato pancake), who becomes a flying sensation after being accidentally tossed into the air. As he soars, he encounters various characters and adventures, spreading joy and cheer during the Hanukkah season. The latke's journey emphasizes themes of celebration, freedom, and the magic of the holiday. Through charming illustrations and playful language, Steig captures the spirit of community and tradition, making it a delightful read for children and families who cherish the festivities of Hanukkah and the joy of togetherness.
