"Retro cartoon styling and smooth digital art in a color palette of green, blue, yellow, and pink give the illustrations a graphic pop-art feel that complements its warmth and whimsy. Light and fluffy as a fresh challah, this book would be useful as an educational lead-in to a program on Jewish holiday traditions." --The Bulletin for the Center of Children's Books "A timeless Shabbat tradition sweetly told." --Kirkus Reviews "Verve reminiscent of a vintage musical number, and crisp digital artwork that nods to 1960s animation." --Publishers Weekly "In a time when Jewish people are facing violence and antisemitism, this book is an oasis of Jewish joy. Not just for cultural collections, but for family shelves, children's baking sections, and any collection that celebrates gatherings and love." --School Library Journal "A sweetly straightforward and celebratory read for Jewish families as well as those wanting to learn more about Jewish culture. Offsay's jaunty and quick-paced rhyming couplets are perfect for reading aloud.

Matching the bouncy tone of Offsay's writing, Kirschner's charmingly dynamic illustrations highlight the characters' actions."-- BookPage.
