"Hanukkah is coming, and the dinos are all busy getting ready! They make brisket and latkes, and the dino-kids play with a dreidel, act out the Hanukkah story, open gifts, and eagerly await their turn to light the menorah. Dinosaurs big and small gather to decorate, eat, and even compete in party festivities like only prehistoric carnivores and herbivores would."-- Provided by publisher

Clifford and Emily Elizabeth are invited to celebrate Hanukkah with their friend Melissa. While at her house, they learn about Hanukkah traditions like lighting the menorah, eating latkes, playing dreidel, and singing songs. After dinner, they all go to see the giant menorah in the town square! But when the lights go out, Clifford just might be the only one big enough to save Hanukkah.
