A young child joyfully attends the special ceremony for the completion of a new Torah scroll and joins in the Torah parade. Every aspect of this special day is explained in full detail, in simple lyrical prose. Finally, when the new Torah is put in its home in the shul, a very tired little one is carried home, too.

From School Library Journal
PreS–As a young girl participates in a celebration to welcome a new Torah scroll to her synagogue, she explains and describes what she sees. The sofer (scribe) uses a quill pen and special black ink to write the letters on soft parchment; everyone wears Shabbos (Sabbath) clothes; the Torah is dressed in velvet with a silver crown and is carried under a chuppah (canopy). The whole neighborhood takes part in a parade with music, dancing, torches, and flags; and the new Torah is read from in the shul (synagogue), where the celebration continues with more singing and dancing. The oil paintings portray a contemporary Jewish community and are attractively framed by brightly colored background paper. Libraries serving observant Jewish communities will welcome this modern depiction of an important neighborhood event.–Rachel Kamin, Temple Israel Libraries & Media Center, West Bloomfield, MI
