Once Upon a Shabbos (Paperback)

by Jacqueline Jules
illustrated by Katherine Janus Kahn

The return of a Kar-Ben favorite!

"In this fun picture book strewn with information about the Shabbos, one of the Three Bears strays from his forest home and threatens to spoil a woman's Shabbos dinner in Brooklyn...repetitive fairy tale elements will have children giggling and guessing at what happens next." –Publishers Weekly

“The Yiddish vocabulary…adds flavor without slowing down the face.  Illustrations are as bold and brash as the personalities, with deep colors and strong lines…What a happy way to tame fears of the ferocious and snuggle into Shabbat; this picture book will make readers ‘beary’ happy!” –Association of Jewish Libraries Newsletter

“This is a real Jewish fairy tale!” –Jewish World News
