(3) K-3 Illustrated by Nuria Balaguer. In this extended parable based on a quote by Rabbi Hillel, a young man journeys to Jerusalem seeking a teacher who can teach him the Torah "while standing on one foot." After encountering naysayers, wise Rabbi Hillel finally provides the answer. Dialogue in bold typeface helps readers to focus on the key concepts, and striking, desert-toned collage illustrations support the allegorical tone.
