Praise
* “This Yiddish-inflected retelling of ‘The Little Red Hen’ features a balabusta (good homemaker) who kvetches about her lazy no-goodnik friends who will not help her make matzah from wheat. . . . A must for Judaica collections.”—School Library Journal, Starred Review
* “Such a clever idea! . . . Watch a familiar tale become exponentially funnier and, yes, more meaningful.”—Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
“very imaginative and witty for young readers.”—Jerusalem Post
“Meisel’s accompanying cartoons . . . add exactly the right touch of humor to this holiday version of a classic folktale, which is filled with enough Yiddishisms to make every Bubbe act out the reading in old-world style.”—Kirkus Reviews
