A Journey To A Promised Land Which Flows With Milk and Honey
“I like that it keeps explaining that Havdalah is coming throughout the book so that children will understand better what is being taught about in this book. I like that the family wants to include friends in the Havdalah celebration when it starts.” — Jill Harris
AJL Newsletter
“This is the ninth in the series, and it provides a good introduction to Havdalah, the end-of -Shabbat ritual that is often overlooked by non-observant families. Different aspects of the ritual are shown: ‘Braided candle we’ll light to brighten the night. Havdalah is coming.’ All males are wearing kippot. Everyone looks like they are having a great time. — Lisa Silverman, Library Director, Burton Sperber Jewish Community Library, Los Angeles, CA

“Family and neighbors celebrate the end of the sabbath day, which is called Havdalah. The full-color art features round-faced people doing customary practices such as putting out the candle. This has a nice, repetitive text that will engage toddlers and offers information about Jewish customs.” — BayViews

“This simple, family-centered account of weekly observance should be welcome in many Jewish homes.” — Kirkus Reviews
