Seller's Description:
VG. Size: 6.7 x 0.2 x 9.6 inches; Very nice clean copy. Just a hint of cover wear. Appears unread. Noted folklorist Howard Schwartz retells 12 Jewish tales from around the world. Each tale combines elements of magic with a link to a Jewish holiday, giving new perspectives on Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Hanukkah, Purim, and Passover-plus Shabbat, the weekly Sabbath. These memorable stories of holiday miracles and miraculous escapes have been passed down orally for thousands of years. Now the best of them-from "A Flock of Angels" to "The Enchanted Menorah" and "The Magic Winecup"-have been collected, and enriched by Monique Passicot's luminous illustrations. 80 pages.
