The Matzo Ball Boy (Picture Puffin Books)

A cute twist on a classic story. Both my kids loved it!

Delighted to get the last available UK copy in time for Passover! This is a fun, very Jewish take on the Gingerbread Man...with a twist. A cute story for the kids which is kosher l'Pesach but also some humour for grown up readers from the mouth of the 'bubbe' who created the Matzo Ball Boy - and a good pinch of Jewish guilt inducing lines.Enjoyed by a range of kids age 3 to 7 and they can't wait to read it/hear it again!

My kindergarteners were laughing out loud! A wonderful addition to any classroom or home library during the holidays or a gingerbread unit.

I love this multi-cultural take on The Gingerbread Man. It had very similar elements, but definitely had it's own take. The grandmother cracked me up. There was a little of humor. PIck it up today!

Will be using this in a comparison and contrast lesson (along with the Gingerbread Boy) with my students . I also bought the Cajun Cornbread Boy to use in class as well.
