The White Ram: A Story of Abraham and Isaac

32 pp. | Holiday | September, 2006 | Trade ISBN 0-8234-1897-9 $16.95
(4) K-3 Gerstein enhances the traditional biblical story with Jewish legends, elevating the ram that saves Isaac to the hero of the tale. Illustrations hint at depictions of the divine, while those of "the evil one" are shown as scary cartoons. Though this book offers little to readers unfamiliar with the story, it is an innovative retelling.
