Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
PreS-This concept board book introduces both the Jewish holidays and the colors of the rainbow (plus white, brown, and silver). Beginning with the red apple on Rosh Hashanah and ending with the orange flames of the Shabbat candles, it is right on target. The big and bold illustrations are stencil-like in appearance. The text is repetitive in a comfortable way, with the briefest explanations needed for the holidays and colors ("What is WHITE? The cover of the Torah on Yom Kippur. That is WHITE.") This book is clearly aimed at a Jewish audience, as there is no glossary or pronunciation guide. A must-have for libraries with a Jewish preschool population.-Yapha Nussbaum Mason, Brentwood Lower School, Los Angeles

5.0 out of 5 stars
A colorful approach to religious education,
This review is from: The Colors of My Jewish Year (Very First Board Books) (Board book)
In "The Colors of My Jewish Year," author Marji Gold-Vukson and illustrator Madeline Wikler use a clever approach to teach young children about Jewish holidays. Each of the major feasts is represented by a color associated with an item that pertains to that occasion. Each color/item/occasion is presented in a question-and-answer format. Example: "What is WHITE? The cover of the Torah on Yom Kippur. That is WHITE." The illustrations are simple and iconic. Overall, this is a good book for reinforcing Jewish education.

This review is from: The Colors of My Jewish Year (Very First Board Books) (Board book)
I bought it for my three kids and my two year old loves it! the pictures are very simple with the focus really being on the color being talked about. it's also nice that it used holidays to build up faith as well. I would recommend this book very highly and am planning on buying a copy for my shul play room.

This review is from: The Colors of My Jewish Year (Very First Board Books) (Board book)
graphics and words are simple. great for introducing colors and jewish concepts together. my 6 y.o. is still not tired of it. as i've said about many books, this is a basic to have in your jewish books collection. we use chanukah time, especially, to add books to our jewish library.
