In the blustery winter of 1938, the Bieman Buddies' sledding adventure abruptly ends, due to a horrible storm. They huddle in the train station with Major Morris, the local wartime hero, and his golden retriever, Honey. Uncle Morrie captivates the children with one more engaging life story before they rush home to escape the winter wipeout.
Eliot's father, Adam Bieman, has become the town doctor, but Eliot is a boy who hates to take chances. When Honey drops his master's hat by their back door and bolts off barking, Eliot and his younger sister, Abbie, realize Uncle Morrie is missing. Yet the rescue team cannot look for him in the treacherous snowy conditions.
The Bieman Buddies pray for their own Hanukkah miracle. At first light, the villagers join in the intense search, including Eliot's uncle, whose family recently arrived from Germany after Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass. Eliot leads the rescue effort and discovers that his sister becomes his best ally. What Doc Bieman reveals will shock everyone to the core.
This charming American tale references the winter hotel business in the Catskill Mountains and captures the essence of Hanukkah, a story of miracles and survival. Through the beautiful descriptions and extraordinary illustrations, Eliot and Abbie will tug at your heartstrings.
A treasured holiday book to enchant readers ages 9 and up.
