Discover and celebrate all of the Jewish holidays with this warm and
engaging poetry collection by the acclaimed author of Mirror Mirror.
In this cheerful, enjoyable poetry collection, a family decides to
celebrate every Jewish holiday for a full year, "the ones we know well,
the ones we do not." Starting with new-year apples dipped in honey on
Rosh Hashanah all the way to flowers and chocolates on Tu B'Av (often
called "Jewish Valentine's Day"), readers can explore the joy and
meaning of the various holidays along with this lively family of five. A
brief explanation of the holiday accompanies each poem.
By an award-winning and beloved children's poet, this is a wonderful
introduction to Jewish celebrations, observances, and days of
remembrance.
