Kay­la and her dog Kugel are back again and they could not be more excit­ed about Passover. Kugel helps Kay­la make a cov­er for her Hag­gadah and Kay­la explains all about the seder. At this seder, Kugel def­i­nite­ly takes part in his own play­ful way and fun is had by all. 

Koffsky’s illus­tra­tions for this book are won­der­ful and Kugel the dog steals the show. The col­ors are a com­fort­ing bal­ance of bright and mut­ed. The fam­i­ly love and humor are felt through­out. The tex­tured illus­tra­tions con­tribute to the warm feel­ing. This book is great for start­ing con­ver­sa­tions about Passover with young chil­dren and intro­duc­ing them to many of the holiday’s con­cepts. There is also a great let­ter writ­ten by the author includ­ed in the back of the book which gives adults some guid­ance about mak­ing these dis­cus­sions with chil­dren effec­tive and has sug­ges­tions for activities. 

Don’t miss out on the pre­vi­ous Kay­la and Kugel book either; these books are an enjoy­able romp. Rec­om­mend­ed for ages 3 – 6.
