Talia and the Haman-tushies

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Francesca Assirelli. Grandma tells Talia the story of Purim while they bake hamantaschen; Talia's fanciful mishearing of the cookie's name gives it a bum rap in her eyes until Grandma sets her straight. Bright, warm illustrations--purple-tinged in the portions showing Queen Esther et al.--are stronger than the thinly plotted text. "Talia's Haman-TUSHIES" recipe is appended (adult supervision required).
