Pat, Roll, Pull: A Challah Braiding Story

32 pp. | Hachai | February, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-1-929628-64-3 $10.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Erin Taylor. Leah worries that she won't braid challah correctly, but her imaginatively shaped bread ends up looking just fine. Though the slight, quickly resolved conflict isn't all that satisfying, the Hebrew terms and Leah's (all-girl) Orthodox class will appeal to those already familiar with Jewish rituals. Illustrations render impressive braids, while the perky characters resemble dolls.
