Put on Your YA-rmulkah, It's Time for Channukah: 8 Crazy Nights of YA (A.K.A. The Chronicles of Word Channukah Special)


Ever feel like there are just SO MANY AWESOME YA BOOKS out there, it’s like Channukah’s come early this year?

Well, you’d be right.  Channukah has come early this year.  I’ll be lighting the first candle in just under a week on November 27th, along with everyone who got a nod in Adam Sandler’s classic musical litany. 

In fact, in honour of the Festival of Lights, I’ve written my own version of the Adam Sandler Channukah song, featuring Jewish YA authors past and present.  Cuz I’m just that cool:

Meg Rosoff spins the dreidel
And Cassandra Clare – what a fine shayna meidel*
Guess who’ll be lighting a Channukah candler?
