Our first book was published in 2021, just before the holiday season. We were humbled by the outpouring of support and hope that Hanukkah Veronica will become a family favorite for years to come. Our story follows Lucy’s journey as she meets Hanukkah Veronica, The Mitzvah Fairy, who fills her home with joy and helps her learn the power of giving. Hanukkah Veronica is the first book in the Bonta Friends series. All books will feature a lovable, huggable cast of characters designed to celebrate the cultures of the world. Hanukkah Veronica encourages children to perform good deeds and understand the meaning and magic of one of our most beautiful traditions… mitzvahs. The end of the book explains the history of Hanukkah, the meaning of each symbol, and a brief discussion of how the holiday is celebrated around the world. “Thanks to my fairy, I learned a lesson this season, kindness is important, and it does not need a reason.”
