Meet The Latkes: Lucy Latke’s family is just like yours or mine… except that they’re potato pancakes. And also, they are completely clueless.

It’s up to the Latke family dog to set the record straight (to start with, they were Maccabees, not Mega Bees … ). But he’ll have to get the rest of the Latkes to listen to him first.
