The Matzo Ball Boy

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Rosanne Litzinger. In this Jewish version of "The Gingerbread Man," a lonely bubbe makes a matzo ball boy in her soup so he can join her for the Passover Seder. But the matzo ball boy runs away--from the bubbe, from the rabbi, etc. The expressive pictures and light, folksy telling strike just the right tone for the story's sly humor.
