(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tatjana Mai-Wyss. To Mira's frustration, during the eight days before her newborn sister's simchat bat (naming ceremony) the baby won't stop crying. At the ceremony, however, Mira finds a way to bond with her sister in a way that inspires her name. The gentle text and quiet but expressive illustrations portray a warm sibling relationship and a loving Jewish family.
