Publisher's summary

A family's Passover celebration is equal parts warmth and charm in this cozy picture book, adapted for audio, with the traditional seder song “Dayenu” as the grateful refrain.

In this story told in spare, lyrical prose, a Jewish family prepares for their Passover seder, visiting the farmer's market for walnuts, lilacs, and honey (and adopting a kitten along the way!), then chopping apples for the charoset, and getting dressed up before walking to Nana's house. The refrain throughout is “Dayenu” - a mindset of thankfulness, a reminder to be aware of the blessings in each moment. At Nana's, there's matzo ball soup, chicken, coconut macaroons, and of course, the hidden afikomen. After opening the door for Elijah and singing the verses of “Chad Gadya”, Nana tucks the children in for a special Passover sleepover.

This warm, affectionate story embraces Passover in the spirit of dayenu - it’s a perfect listen for the entire family in anticipation and celebration of the holiday.

Critic reviews

“Works equally well as a primer on Passover and a reminder for any child, Jewish or not, that any day can be filled with things that feel like blessings.... Hum[s] with personality and lively details.” (The New York Times)

"'Dayenu' is a joyful, upbeat, and energetic song, as is this book! Readers of all ages will enjoy following the adventures of the children in this story as they shop with their mother, adopt a kitten, taste the rain, help cook the Seder meal, and celebrate the Passover holiday with their extended family.” (The Jewish Eye)

“Scenes of Jewish home life exude an easygoing buoyancy and warmth, with just enough humor and detail to make readers eager to find their own ‘Dayenu’ moments.” (Publishers Weekly)

Passover is one of my favorite holidays

I love “Pesach” Passover. I grew up celebrating it every year with my friends and family. I loved listening to Gilli reading the story as well as singing the song. It is a great gift for kids to hold the book and listen to her voice reading and explaining the Passover symbols.
Bravo!
