A year of Jewish holidays with Beni’s family

Beni’s bear family provides a thread through a calendar of Jewish holidays, from Rosh Hashanah to Shavuot. Alongside short family stories and notes on holiday origins, the collection offers songs, recipes, and crafts connected with each occasion, including making Purim masks and baking honey-dipped challah. The mix of factual material and fictional family episodes makes the book both an introduction to holiday traditions and a collection of activities to return to throughout the year.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 exploring Jewish holidays and traditions
  • Families seeking holiday-related stories, recipes, songs, and crafts to share
  • Readers familiar with Beni’s Family Treasury or Beni’s Family Cookbook

Book overview

Join Beni and his family as they celebrate a year in Jewish Holidays, including all their favorite craft activities, recipes, songs, and stories for each occasion. The perfect gift book that gives all year long.

Chronicling a full year of Jewish festivities--from Rosh Hashanah through Shavuot, with every momentous occasion in between--this one-of-a-kind treasury includes homespun family stories, origin notes, craft activities, songs, and recipes for each holiday. With ideas on how to make masks for Purim, recipes to bake fresh honey-dipped challah to mark the new year, and so much more, this interactive holiday collection begs to be revisited again and again.

Beautifully crafted and with the right balance of factual details interspersed with fictional stories, this Jewish treasury is a welcome introduction to each holiday in the calendar year, and it is all told through the lens of Beni's bear family. For parents who grew up reading Beni's Family Treasury and Beni's Family Cookbook, the family tradition lives on in this much anticipated compendium for contemporary readers.

"Mouthwatering recipes, activities, and songs round out the chapters.... Young readers and their grown-ups will find much to savor here." --Kirkus Reviews
