Reviews
Publishers Weekly
“Weiser’s playful digital illustrations have the inventive framings of mid-century art posters, while Moritz’s linguistically twisty text leads this earnest but nonsensical Passover tale that may well become the basis for many a holiday in-joke.” — Publishers Weekly
AJL Newsletter
“This book presents an excellent introduction to the Biblical Zoo in Jerusalem, a wonderful place for children of all ages to learn about animals mentioned in the Bible as well as endangered species.” — Rachel Glasser, AJL Newsletter, retired librarian, Yavneh Academy, Teaneck, NJ
