A heartwarming exploration of the beauty of Shabbat and the wonderfully diverse fabric of Jewish life and experience, for fans of The Proudest Blue and All Are Welcome.

What does Shabbat mean to you?
Is it making a big meal with your relatives on Friday night?
Singing songs on Saturday morning?
Or maybe it’s seeing all your friends after services.

Shabbat can mean different things to different people, even for those who attend the same synagogue! This timeless story by award-winning author A. J. Sass explores the countless ways to celebrate the sabbath holiday through the wonderfully diverse fabric of Jewish life and experience.
