Jewish Journal

Cover: Who's Got the Etrog?

“This new picture book introduces children to the Ugandan Jewish community of the Abayudaya. The book says the community was started in the early 1900s by an African chief who led his people to reject Christianity and follow only the Torah. Children will enjoy following the antics of Ugandan animals who come to visit Antie Sanyu’s beautiful garden sukkah. Although Camel, Lion, Parrot and Giraffe behave themselves, Warthog gets a bit too obsessed with the sweet-smelling etrog and refuses to share. The delightful rhythm of the rhymes and the African-inspired artwork make this tale a perfect read-aloud in the sukkah or anywhere else.”―Jewish Journal
