What Other Families Say About This Book

"Being part of a multicultural family and seeing black representation in Judaism is especially important. It encourages inclusivity rather than feeling rejected as is often the case when you look "different.""

"Great book and kids love hearing it. What I really like about though is the multiracial family and that main character is black. For my family this is a "2-in-1" book touching both on themes of multiracial families and Jewish observance."
