Kopecks for Blintzes
Barbara Diamond Goldin's A Mountain of Blintzes is a more positive Shavuot story based on the same folktale.
What Do You Do with a Problem?
A well-meaning but misguided look at problem-solving. Stick with any of the many stories in which relatable characters face specific challenges, like Kevin Henkes's Wemberly Worried, Mo Willems's Can I Play Too??, or even Virginia Lee Burton's classic Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel.
On One Foot
This excellent introduction to the Golden Rule can be used successfully with Jewish and non-Jewish audiences. Combine with Ilene Cooper's The Golden Rule for a more multicultural approach and Laurie Keller's Do unto Otters for a more playful version.
One Fine Shabbat
While imperfect, these three books do offer positive and age-appropriate portrayals of Shabbat and Passover and will be welcomed by caregivers and educators in Jewish settings.
More Than Enough: A Passover Story
A pleasant and extremely satisfying story for readers already familiar with Passover.
Shmulik Paints the Town
Charming, funny, and visually clever, this book will have wide appeal for Jewish and non-Jewish readers.
Jess's Story
An additional purchase for larger chapter book collections, or where the first title has fans.
Tamar's Sukkah
The abridged board book version of the story, published in 1999, with a trimmed text and bright cartoon illustrations by Shauna Mooney Kawasaki, is more successful.
