(4) K-3 Illustrated by Shahar Kober. Engineer Ari drives a train to Jerusalem and back before Passover, picking up food for his seder plate from friends along the way. The meandering and wordy story doesn't have enough of a payoff (Ari falls asleep when he gets home), though the cheery illustrations depict a friendly, helpful community. An author's note introduces the historic Jaffa-to-Jerusalem railway. Glos.
