(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jeff Ebbeler. A boy and his grandparents lose power after lighting the Shabbat candles--but they nevertheless enjoy a holiday that includes a special meal, playing in the snow, and stargazing. When electricity is restored, the boy concludes that "even the lights needed a Shabbat rest." Accompanied by richly colored illustrations (that depict a particularly unattractive Nana), the story is bland but amiable.
