Good Night Laila Tov by Laurel Snyder -OPTIONAL

Snyder, Laurel. Good Night, Laila Tov.  Illustrated by Jui Ishida.  32 pgs.  Random House Books for Young Readers, 2012.  $17.99.  Content: G PICTURE BOOK.  This is a beautiful and tender book but would be more appropriate for those who understand Hebrew language and tradition.  We were a little confused at the repletion of “Good Night, Laila Tov, and what it meant until we read the book jacket.  We have nothing negative to review, just that it didn’t really apply to our situation and understanding.  This book could be used with a unit on traditions or cultural difference.  OPTIONAL.  Pre-K.  EL (K-3).
