(3) K-3 Illustrated by Martina Peluso. Joseph is a generous, humble man who always helps his neighbors and shares his Sabbath meal. In contrast, his neighbor Judah is selfish and closed-off. This Jewish folktale's lessons about the benefits of sharing and the detriment of greed are evident without resorting to preachiness. Warm, rich-hued illustrations flow elegantly from page to page.
