I had been searching for this book for a long time. It is the perfect Shabbat story for my k-1 class. The book came quickly and in better-than-advertised condition.

I loved reading this book with my son when he was young. Shabbat is such a difficult holiday to describe to a young child, yet it is the only holiday mentioned in the Ten Commandments. The pictures and examples give many concrete events which can help your child learn to set this day apart.
