A joyful picture book story celebrating a Jewish mother’s tradition of making challah with her child – and includes the author’s favourite recipe.
Perfect for children who love to bake, this poetic, meditative narration paired with illustrations full of light and warmth captures the experience of a Jewish family as they make challah – a lesson in patience, slowing down, faith and family.
A child and a mother measure, mix, knead, shape and tuck their dough under a towel like a sleeping baby. Then, as they do every week, they wait while their dough rises, soon to be baked and gratefully shared at a Shabbat gathering with loved ones.
Includes the author’s own challah recipe, a glossary of terms and an author’s note describing the personal meaning of her family’s weekly ritual.
