Stella and her dog Schoomie live next door to Jesus. They go to play with him, but he is busy preparing for Hanukkah. He tells them all about it. His mother, Mary, explains the material that is used for the Menorah wicks is the same material for the swaddling clothes used when Jesus was born (It represents that he is the light of the world). He is Mary's little light. Jesus invites Stella's family to the celebration.
