Editorial Review

“Graphically imaginative and poetically told, And There Was Evening And There Was Morning by Harriet Cohen Helfand, illustrated by Ellen Kahan Zager is the creation story in rhyme. Told simply in rhyming couplets that children 3 to 8 will understand, the illustrations are at once sophisticated yet appealing for youngsters. Since the world was created with words, the artist has used Hebrew letters to create her illustrations. The more one looks at them, the more delightful and creative they are. Truly a lovely rendering of creation.” – Chicago Jewish Star
