Sammy Spider's First Bar Mitzvah

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Katherine Janus Kahn. Curious Sammy the spider accidentally attends Josh's cousin Ben's bar mitzvah, where Sammy ends up on a piece of candy that is thrown at Ben after the service. Unsurprisingly, Sammy makes it back home safely. Accompanied by flat but colorful collage illustrations, the slight story does impart a few facts about this Jewish rite of passage.
