Book Details

A girl’s community joins hands to fight intolerance in this richly illustrated picture book that sings with hope for young readers. Leila loves going to Hebrew school and hearing stories of mighty kings and quick-witted queens. Being Jewish is a part of her story, and learning Hebrew connects her to her ancestors. L’dor V’dor! From one generation to the next! But when Leila’s synagogue gets vandalised, she isn’t sure what she wants. Something that used to make her feel special now just makes her feel different. Then Leila’s classmates and community come together to repair the synagogue. This compassionate gesture makes Leila realise that everyone around her is different-and that’s a beautiful thing.
