(4) K-3 On the eve of Rosh Hashanah, young Reuven follows his village's rabbi to see whether the learned man, as rumored, ascends to heaven to meet with God. Instead, Reuven discovers how the community's spiritual leader serves earthbound souls in need. Rather garish watercolor and colored-pencil illustrations accompany this text-heavy adaptation of a story by turn-of-the-twentieth-century writer I. L. Peretz.
