Praise for Sadie's Shabbat Stories
“A well-considered, tender tale about sharing history and holidays via the oral tradition.”
– Kirkus
"Emphasizing the ways that traditions bridge the future and the past, ‘Sadie’s Shabbat Stories’ is an awe-encouraging introduction to a storied Jewish holiday . . . Lisa Goldberg’s illustrations are both evocative and complementary, capturing the wonder inspired by Nana’s memories as they become Sadie’s memories, too.”
– Foreword
“ ’Sadie’s Shabbat Stories’ could easily be used as a springboard in classrooms and homes for discussions about Judaic objects found in the home, extending even beyond Shabbat to other items such as a family’s Hanukkah menorah or Passover seder plate . . . Goldberg’s warm, soft and imaginative illustrations complement the story arc beautifully, in portraying the different characters and settings, from shtetl life to contemporary times . . .”
