Alef Is for Abba / Alef Is for Ima

(4) PS Illustrated by Constanza Basaluzzo. Each page of this two-in-one book features a word starting with the Hebrew letter alef written in Hebrew, English, and transliteration. From one direction, the words and pictures depict the boy's interactions with his mother (Ima); from the other direction, with his father (Abba). Cheery cartoonlike illustrations let preschoolers fill in details of the purposeful story about a family preparing for Shabbat.
