It features the Jewish folk hero and trickster figure Hershel of Ostropol challenging and defeating through guile a series of goblins over the course of the eight nights of Hanukkah, culminating in a showdown with the King of the Goblins himself on the final night. Eric Kimmel has written a simple, humorous, slightly unsettling, ultimately touching story about this enterprising and persistent gentleman. Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins is a children's picture book written by Eric Kimmel and illustrated by Trina Schart Hyman in 1989. ![]() ![]() 1989 picture book by Eric Kimmel and Trina Schart Hyman Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins: 25th Anniversary Edition - Kindle edition by Kimmel, Eric A., Hyman, Trina Schart. ![]()
