A perfect bedtime tale with
beautiful artwork that will
delight readers.
A delightful retelling of how
Rabbi Akiva learned to read
and write at the age of forty.
This charming glow-in-the-dark picture
book for young children celebrates
the magic of Shabbat. As the sun goes
down on a Friday evening and darkness
descends, different sources of light
welcome in the Sabbath: candles,
lanterns, the moon and stars, fireflies,
night lights, and then, the next morning,
the sunrise. Told in gentle rhyming
couplets and beautifully illustrated
throughout, this is an enchanting
exploration of light and dark, and a
journey through the various rituals
of Shabbat.
Based on a midrash, this is the story
of how Rabbi Akiva overcame fear and
embarrassment to go from humble
shepherd to legendary Jewish leader –
with a little help from his clever wife
and a donkey with a garden on its back!
Menahem Halberstadt’s charming
artwork and Devora Busheri’s
captivating text combine to create
a beautiful and inspiring book about
striving and reaching one’s goals.
