Friends Leah and Ari long for a sukkah and then win one through a contest at Hebrew school. It takes their whole neighborhood to build, decorate, and use it for Sukkot, including the non-Jewish owner of the local fruit market. The pleasant story emphasizes community, adaptability, and sharing. Warm illustrations show the friends and their families in a variety of city settings.
