outstanding:
Beautifully written and illustrated, a wonderful baby gift or gift for a young child. The CD is wonderful too. My son asks me to read the book over and over.
we love this CD:
This is an absolutely beautiful CD of traditional bedtime prayers sung angelically by Rabbi Julia Andelman. Our kids love listening to it in the car, and then I sing them selections at bedtime, usually aided by the gorgeous book. A great present for friends with kids.
