Synopsis

*"An oasis of Jewish joy." --School Library Journal*

Baked with love! A family mixes, kneads, braids, and bakes bread for dinner with Grandma and Grandpa in this joyful, rhyming story.**

Inspired by memories author Charlotte Offsay and illustrator Jason Kirschner have of baking Challah with their children, Challah Day celebrates the sweetness of sharing homemade food as a family.

Yeast and sugar - water's warm,
mix and watch those bubbles form!
Crack the eggs - one… two… three… four
Extra if some hit the floor.

This read aloud can be a joyful introduction to a new culture or a cozy way to celebrate a familiar one. Perfect for any occasion as a holiday gift or the start of a new weekly tradition.

In the back of the book, read about the cultural importance of Challah and Jewish traditions. A Challah recipe is included.

"It's time to make the challah, and this loving Jewish family is ready for a day of fun."-Kirkus Reviews
