Bagels from Benny

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Dusan Petricic & Dusan Petricic. Benny tries to thank God for his grandfather's excellent bagels by placing a bag of them in the Holy Ark at the synagogue each Shabbat. The gift disappears every time. Is God eating them, or someone else? Despite the somewhat heavy-handed resolution, this is a sweet and satisfying story, well written and amusingly illustrated. A brief source note is provided.
