Sky High Sukkah

By Rachel Ornstein Packer

Book Overview

A beautiful Sukkot picture book about friendship and community.

"Delightful" -David Adler, author of the popular Cam Jansen series

"Beyond explaining the holiday's significance, Leah's story will serve to illustrate Judaism's model of kehilla (community), in which cooperative spirit brings people together." --Kirkus Reviews

Leah lives high up in an apartment building overlooking the city and dreams of having a sukkah of her own. But there's no place to build it. With some help from the neighbors, Leah and her friend Ari find a way to have their own sukkah -- on the roof.

Includes a note for families about the Jewish value of kehilla (community).
