One of the world's greatest writers of Yiddish stories known for their humor and pathos, Sholom Aleichem wrote many tales for children, seven of which appear in this collection. Centering around the holidays, the high points of the Jewish year, they include Benny's Luck, which tells of the amazing good fortune of a young boy and his dreydl.

The Esrog, A Ruined Passover, The Goldspinners, and The Passover Exiles complete this collection that will delight a new generation of readers while also rekindling heartwarming memories among older Sholom Aleichem fans.
