4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for beginners, October 27, 2007

By	Reader (NJ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Celebrate: A Book of Jewish Holidays (Reading Railroad) (Paperback)

This book was a great introduction to Jewish holidays for my 3-year old. I have been introducing her to the basics of the major holidays as they come along over the past year, but the sweet, simple explanations and pictures in this book help her remember and begin to understand.

3.0 out of 5 stars Very Nice Review of Jewish Holidays, October 21, 2008

By	C. M. Wells (Fort Worth, TX United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Celebrate: A Book of Jewish Holidays (Reading Railroad) (Paperback)

This book was purchased as a part of a homeschool curriculum and my children liked it. In fact, they still pick it up to read it even though we covered the material last year.

It's a good primer on Jewish holy-days and celebrations for children of any religion.

The stories are well-told, simple, and well illustrated.

5.0 out of 5 stars Celebrate: A Book of Jewish Holidays, May 25, 2009

By	Marion Harris "For Peep Sakes" (Lapeer, MI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Celebrate: A Book of Jewish Holidays (Reading Railroad) (Paperback)

I really appreciate this book, as a stepping stone, for my boys to learn about, respect, and appreciate the Jewish culture. The holidays are broken down into fun and easy to understand sections, with vivid childrens illustrations. I was not afforded the opportunity as a child to learn about the Jewish religion/culture, and am very thankful that I have the opportunity to learn right along with my boys, as we journey through a homeschooling curriculum together. The author/illustrator did a phenominal job making this topic easy to understand and fun to learn.
