This week’s staff pick is a charming retelling of the classic fable, Stone Soup, told with a Passover twist. Linda Glaser’s Stone Soup with Matzoh Balls is definitely one to be read aloud!
“An old man walks into the town of Chelm asking for food. The townspeople claim they have nothing to share, but the man explains that he can make enough food for everyone with just a stone. The townspeople are intrigued and watch the man as he creates a pot of delicious matzoh ball soup. As he begins to cook, he asks for one ingredient and then another, which the townspeople provide. In the end, they have unknowingly contributed to making a Seder feast for all to share!” —Amazon
