Why the Jewish Sabbath is special
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This informative book tells how the Jewish Sabbath, called Shabbat, originated. It also tells how it has been celebrated at different times and how to celebrate it now. The new illustrations by Emily Lisker include even more Jewish traditions. They are bright and clear paintings, acrylics on canvas. At the end there is a recipe for challah and instructions on how to make a challah cover.This is a very good book for children who are Jewish or who want to learn more about the Jewish Sabbath.
