ReviewsPraise for FIVE LITTLE GEFILTES "Think of this as pretty tasty schmear."-- Publishers Weekly "Silly, but all in good fun."-- School Library Journal "The illustrations are full of humor . . .Nostalgic looks back at the lively culture of immigrant Jews are worthy of applause."-- Kirkus Reviews "You do not have to be Jewish to enjoy reading the tale of the five little gefiltes . . . The jolly nonsense is visualized with cut paper, charcoal, and colored pencils on double-page spreads. Very simple city settings include background silhouettes of buildings and, frequently, storefronts with funny signs. Speech balloons give a few characters a chance to express feelings such as "What a shnook" or "Such chutzpah." The family is depicted as simple ovals with a few lines that still manage to communicate their feelings quite clearly. As the guys note on the jacket, "Such a nice book.""-- Children's Literature
