Sadie's Lag Ba'Omer Mystery

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Julie Fortenberry. Siblings Sadie and Ori can't find any information about the Jewish holiday of Lag Ba'Omer; finally, with help from Grandpa, they learn the story behind the holiday and have a picnic to celebrate it. The book exists as a lesson only, but at least it's a cheerful one; brightly colored, slightly hazy illustrations complement the "mystery." An explanatory note is appended.
