Publisher Description: Celebrating Jewish holidays has never been sillier than in Chelm, the Village of Fools While the Chelmites try to solve problems--like outsmarting bees to get Rosh Hashanah honey, and keeping menorah candles lit without enough oil--their foolishness causes even more chaos. Enjoy these tall tales, old and new, one for each of ten holidays throughout the Jewish year. |
