Shira the dog loves to sing: “she howls whenever she can.” When she tries to sing throughout the week, her family shushes her. But on Saturday night, as they sing the Havdalah blessings, Shira’s singing is finally welcomed. The slight story is accompanied by illustrations that show Shira’s affability and the commotion of the family’s life. More information about Havdalah and the blessings for the holiday are included.
