Review
I’ve been having so much fun learning about Jewish traditions I didn’t even know about. As Michelle Franklin herself said, the best part about these books is they’re not solely linked to Judaism as they’re not about religion but about traditions, family, and community.
I admit this particular book was hard for me to follow with so many different terms, but I enjoyed the variety of cat-bird mixes included. We also get a more dynamic Bubbeh Yenta, baby Gryphons, and cheesecake!
