This count down to the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah explores
life and celebration on a family farm through the eyes of a
young girl allowed to help with preparations for the first time.
It’s just three days until the holiday of Rosh Hashanah, the
Jewish New Year. A young girl and her family are getting ready for
the traditional holiday feast. Family and friends gather to help
harvest and clean the fall root vegetables, mix them with honey and
dried fruits, and cook them into the traditional sweet vegetable
stew, called tzimmes, ‘for a sweet new year.’ It’s
hard but satisfying work that leaves everyone with aching arms,
sore feet and happy hearts. When Rosh Hashanah morning arrives,
they join together at the synagogue to hear the shofar, the horn
that is blown to announce that the holiday has arrived. Back at
home on their farm with a diverse group of friends and neighbors,
they celebrate both a new year and the joy of being together. This
food and farm-focused story is sweetened by illustrations full of
cheerful colors and textured patterns. Award-winning author Megan
Hoyt helps readers explore both culturally specific Rosh Hashanah
practices and life on a small family farm, while providing a
universal message of community and tradition.
Gertie the elephant says everyone on the playground should stay far
away from Bunny because she's super mean. But Kitty has questions:
How did Bunny become a bully? Was she born that way? Was she stung
by a bullybug? Or maybe she caught the bully flu? Wait, does that
mean bullying is contagious? And if it is, couldn't the other
animals catch it, too? But... then no one would play with them
either, and that doesn't seem fair. Is it possible that Bunny is
sorry? Should they give her a second chance?
Beautifully illustrated by award-winning artist Christine Battuz,
this soothing board book is perfect for sleepy little ones in need
of a bedtime story and a cuddle. When darkness falls and everything
goes quiet, all the animals get ready to say good night. The drowsy
bunnies go to bed early, while the little foxes curl up together in
their den. The book has a built-in moon shaped nightlight that
emits a soft light when pressed and uses replaceable batteries.
Nightlight closes after 30 seconds. Perfect for bedtime snuggles!
