Don't Unbraid the Challah!: A Funny Shabbat Story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781069624826)

Every Friday night, Rachel and her Bubbe prepare their family table for Shabbat. The candles are set, the kiddush cup is polished, and the braided challah sits proudly in the center.

There's just one problem.

Rachel cannot stop unbraiding it.

What begins as a small burst of creativity quickly grows into a series of wildly imaginative (and increasingly chaotic) creations. Week after week, Rachel's ideas become bigger, bolder, and more outrageous, until one unexpected Shabbat forces everyone to rethink what really belongs at the table.

Don't Unbraid the Challah is a laugh-out-loud picture book that celebrates family traditions, imagination, and the challenge of learning when to let creativity shine and when to rein it in. Set within the rhythms of Jewish family life but grounded in universal childhood experiences, this energetic read-aloud invites children from all backgrounds to recognize their own family tables in the story.

With escalating visual humour and a performance-ready cadence, Don't Unbraid the Challah! is a joyful addition to classroom libraries, multicultural collections, and family bookshelves alike.
