A joyful picture book story celebrating a Jewish mother’s tradition of making challah with her child – and includes the author’s favourite recipe.
Perfect for children who love to bake, this poetic, meditative narration paired with illustrations full of light and warmth captures the experience of a Jewish family as they make challah – a lesson in patience, slowing down, faith and family.
A child and a mother measure, mix, knead, shape and tuck their dough under a towel like a sleeping baby. Then, as they do every week, they wait while their dough rises, soon to be baked and gratefully shared at a Shabbat gathering with loved ones.
Includes the author’s own challah recipe, a glossary of terms and an author’s note describing the personal meaning of her family’s weekly ritual.
Kids will love this hilarious fairy tale adventure packed with clever twists, familiar characters and page-turning fun.
