When Shnook the peddler arrives in the sleepy town of Korovenko, young Leibush runs to meet him. Every peddler brings merriment to the village, but simple Shnook brings more laughs than any of them.
On this visit Shnook's wares include beautiful, hand-carved dreidels. Leibush can't take his eyes off them! When Leibush notices one mistakenly left behind, he makes excuses for keeping the dreidel. It isn't until Leibush makes amends that he learns the peddler's simple ways might just be a cover for a wealth of wisdom and forgiveness. And when Hanukkah comes, Shnook leaves Leibush a gift to last a lifetime.
