4.0 out of 5 stars A charming overview of Passover traditions, April 16, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: On Passover (Hardcover)

There is a cozy, warm feel to this book, not least because of the beautifully colored illustrations. They show a young girl as she is encouraged by her family to experience Passover through her senses--How does Passover smell, taste, sound, etc. This interaction between the girl and several generations of her family lends a wonderful element of shared traditions. All of these aspects of the story blend to become a book to which a wide variety of people can relate, without regard to their religious background.

4.0 out of 5 stars Using your senses to prepare for Passover, April 4, 2011

This review is from: On Passover (Paperback)

A child describes the Passover preparations of his (or her, we aren't told which) family. Each time the child asks a question about the preparations he is told to use one of his 5 senses to figure out the answer. This clever presentation teaches us about the foods, story and games of Passover.

An enjoyable book for 4-8 year olds.

This review is from: On Passover (Paperback)

I love all the books in this series. We have and have given all of them - On Passover, On Shabbat, etc. They're the best children's books about the holidays I've ever seen.
