Reviews
San Diego Jewish Times
“…From the beaches of Tel Aviv to the Dead Sea to Jerusalem and the Negev Desert, Sammy Spider’s First Trip to Israel is simply the best book for very young children on Israel that I’ve seen.”
Jewish Book World
“As seen through Sammy’s big, round eyes, Israel is a diverse, colorful, and meaningful place for Jews – just what one hopes preschoolers will grasp.”
—Jewish Book World
The Jerusalem Report
“. . .the message that Israel is not on the list of forbidden destinations is a positive one in my book, and it’s especially encouraging to know that this is Sammy’s ‘first’ foray in the Middle East.”
—The Jerusalem Report
Washington Jewish Week
“Do join Sammy Spider on his stowaway adventure as he tours Israel and learns the many meanings of ‘Shalom’.”
Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle
“. . .a breath of fresh air. These days, when all talk of Israel and the Middle East is muddled and dark, this book is a light and sweet view of Israel through the eyes of a tourist.”
—Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle
