A charming story for young
readers, introducing them to
Jewish faith and culture, and
teaching them about the joy of
learning a language.
A heart-warming bedtime
story that celebrates Jewish
traditions and the importance
of spending time with friends
and family.
The word ‘shalom’ means three different
things: ‘hello’, ‘goodbye’ and ‘peace’.
In this sweet, simple tale, Sheep
experiments with this triple meaning
as she says hello and goodbye to all
her friends on the farm. Then, as she
tucks herself into bed that night,
she remembers that ‘shalom’ has one
more meaning: ‘peace’. And with that,
surrounded by the moon and stars,
she falls into a peaceful night’s sleep.
What does your Shabbat look like?
Join a little boy and his adorable puppy
for a Shabbat spent in the sun, and learn
about traditions and the importance
of quality time with family, friends and
neighbours. After a busy day walking to
the synagogue and back, a delicious picnic
with Gran and Uncle Dave, and playing
on the beach with Sarina – one by one,
everyone drifts off to sleep.
