Miriam and the Sasquatch: A Rosh Hashanah Story
Though this won’t explain the holiday to newcomers, Jewish families will welcome the engaging plot and simple lesson. This fun title would be a great addition to any library wishing to expand its books on Jewish holidays.

The Three Latkes
The story is mildly amusing but the Chanukah aspect of the story seems to be nearly beside the point. Its impact does not outweigh the missteps. Pass on this one.

Nicanor’s Gate
Whether as folktale, Talmudic retelling, or a preschool course in miracles, this book will find a home in many school and public collections.
Hank and Gertie: A Pioneer Hansel and Gretel Story
This version somewhat softens the harshness of the original tale but the specificity of the setting and various additions make it less broadly appealing.
PREMIUM
Big Sam: A Rosh Hashanah Tall Tale
This welcome addition to the Jewish holiday bookshelf will pair nicely with Sylvia B. Epstein's How the Rosh Hashanah Challah Became Round and Jacqueline Jules's The Hardest Word: A Yom Kippur Story.
Little Red Rosie
Leslie Kimmelman's The Little Red Hen and the Passover Matzah is a more successful Jewish holiday adaptation of the well-loved folktale.
