Mike and Maya are bored-until Rabbi Matzah appears in a swirl of sparkles with a matzah wand and a mission: save Shabbat. What begins as an ordinary Saturday becomes a time-traveling journey through the very first day of rest, a candlelit shtetl, and a table full of challah, blessings, and presence. Along the way, they discover that Shabbat isn't just about stopping-it's about being.
Rabbi Matzah: The Shabbat Book is a beautifully illustrated hardcover filled with humor, warmth, and hands-on magic. With vibrant full-page art and playful dialogue, it introduces Jewish tradition in a joyful, kid-friendly way. Whether your family observes Shabbat every week or is just beginning to explore Jewish culture, this book opens the door to stillness, connection, and wonder.
Includes:
- Shabbat blessings (candles, wine, bread) in Hebrew and English
