It's Purim Time (Hardcover)

 

It's Purim Time! 

by Latifa Berry Kropf, photographs by Tod Cohen

Perfect for your preschoolers, It's Purim Time! shows a nursery school class preparing for Purim.  Ideas for costumes, groggers and shelach manot are included (I especially love the birdseed grogger.  Kropf suggests that after Purim the children can empty their groggers into a bird feeder!)

 

Sammy Spider's First Purim (Paperback)

Sammy Spider's First Purim

by Sylvia A. Rouss, illustrations by Katherine Janus Kahn

Poor Sammy Spider's in trouble again.  This time, he's gotten stapled inside Josh Shapiro's grogger!  Will he be able to get out before Josh leaves for shul?

Read this delightful story (with beautiful Eric Carle-like illustrations) and get inspired to make your own paper plate and button grogger just like Josh does.

 

The Purim Surprise (Paperback)

The Purim Surprise

by Lesley Simpson, illustrations by Peter Church

Naomi and her mom have just moved into a new neighborhood and Mom is so busy preparing shelach manot for the new neighbors that she's forgotten all about Naomi's birthday!  (Or has she?)  You'll have to read to discover the "Purim surprise".

The Whole Megillah: Almost (Paperback)

The Whole Megillah (Almost)

by Shoshana Silberman, illustrations by Katherine Kahn

Want to learn the whole megillah?  Silberman has created the delightful Purim service for your synagogue, school or home and has even included fun ideas and a Purim shpiel (if it only came with a bag of hamentaschen it would be perfect!)
