STARRED REVIEW!! "A boy and his mom have just moved from a house to a city apartment. As they unpack, the child worries about finding his blanket and how they will celebrate Sukkot without a backyard. His mother tells stories of various unusual celebrations, and, after a trip to the park, they make an indoor sukkah out of moving boxes, with the rediscovered blanket serving as their starry sky. The first-person text is short and accessible, providing a true sense of the child's concerns. The mixed media illustrations, which are a nice combination of full-bleed single pages and spreads as well as some spot art, create a visually dynamic experience. The child and his mother are the only people depicted, except in memories, keeping the focus squarely on his emotions and dilemmas. The images, reminiscent of Lisa Brown's style, have a slightly cartoony feel, yet the sukkah and the park scene have nice detail. While the lulav and etrog are never mentioned, the reasoning behind the sukkah and the requirements for building one are made clear in text and back matter. Berkowitz successfully creates a sweet, accessible, child-centric story. VERDICT This lovely marriage of a story of moving and Sukkot will be a welcome addition to the shelf in any library serving Jewish patrons or looking to expand their holiday collections." --Amy Lilien-Harper, School Library Journal, "A boy and his mom have just moved from a house to a city apartment.

VERDICT This lovely marriage of a story of moving and Sukkot will be a welcome addition to the shelf in any library serving Jewish patrons or looking to expand their holiday collections." --Amy Lilien-Harper, School Library Journal A young boy moves from a house to the seventeenth floor of an apartment building and worries about the many ways his life will now change. One of his concerns is whether he will be able to celebrate the holiday of Sukkot without having a backyard in which to build a sukkah. His mother tells him about the odd places that Jews have built their sukkot throughout history, including on board a ship and on the back of a camel. She reminds him that the Jewish people have historically been forced to move from place to place; they even spent forty years traveling through a desert. She notes that they used their ingenuity to celebrate times of joy. The two decide to construct a sukkah out of their moving boxes and a special blanket, making their new space feel just like home. Colorful pictures of fanciful sukkot and beautiful scenery enhance this satisfying story. An author's note discusses a debate (in which rabbis engaged long ago) about where it is possible to build a sukkah. It also reminds readers that age-old traditions can be observed in new ways, no matter the circumstances. One must only think creatively and keep a positive attitude. --Michal Hoschander Malen, Jewish Book Council

Hard to believe a seller with 175K transactions under their belt still makes rookie mistakes. No tracking, no communication after one message, just not professional. Item was supposedly shipped but never arrived. Refund (and a long-winded, flimsy explanation) came after I simply inquired about the whereabouts of my item. Leads me to think they never sent it in the first place. I've had successful deals with these people in the past, but I don't enjoy playing their brand of eBay roulette.
