I like the fact you have addressed interfaith and interdenominational cooperation. It is refreshing to have characters working together and allowing for differences rather than conflict over them. Best wishes on the book.

I also read Front Desk and still love it and think about it today, so this book will be a joy to read and experience.

I especially love that the book includes different ways to observe Judaism, and that the key lies in girls of different religions working together. I think that too often in recent decades, mainstream children’s books have shied away from the topic of religion. Can’t wait to read this one!

I am grateful for and inspired by Tziporah’s thoughtful consideration of Jewish identity in MG and cannot wait to read this as a mentor text for my own writing!
