Reviews
Children's Literature Comprehensive Database (CLCD)
“The large and colorful illustrations make this picture book a perfect pick for classroom story time. . . a book that can help open up a medieval world of wonder.”—Children’s Literature
Kirkus Reviews
“This thought-provoking tale will be especially welcome as an introduction to Maimonides. A reminder that wisdom comes in different forms and from different sources.”―Kirkus Reviews
Sydney Taylor Shmooze
“Can appeal to those looking for a dive into Jewish history, Judaic scholarship, and Sephardic culture, as well as those looking for the more universal messages of the value of connections with animals and the natural world, and the importance of taking time out of our busy days for thought and reflection.”―Sydney Taylor Shmooze
