      About This Book

      Three inspiring stories illuminate the mitzvot of the High Holy Days: Charity, Repentance, and Prayer, in a strikingly illustrated new edition Award-winning folklorist Eric A. Kimmel tells stories to dramatize the meaning of each pillar of the holiday–a couple who share what they have, only to find that their samovar keeps refilling, a shepherd who loves God so much that he makes up his own prayers to Him, and a beggar and a Rabbi who together experience the power of repentance.Sarah Green's striking fresh illustrations set the tone for these stories which help share the most moving days in the Jewish calendar.
