Rosie's Fabulous Friday

Rosie wakes up and discovers it's Friday, her favorite day of the week! After coming home from school, her family piles into the car and heads to New York City to her grandparents' house. Rosie squabbles with her sister Sam along the way. Once they arrive at their grandparents' apartment, it's time to make Shabbat dinner. The girls fight over who gets to cook which food but their grandfather explains to them that they shouldn't be fighting over the food because it isn't important for the holiday. The true meaning of Shabbat is about spending time together as a family, the food is just a bonus. The family cooks the feast together, they say prayers over the Shabbat candles and they have dessert. When it's time to go home, Grandma gives the girls presents. Even though Rosie had such a great day, she isn't sad that it's over as the family heads back home. That's the beauty of Shabbat, it will all happen again next Friday! Rosie's Fabulous Friday is a children's picture book complete at 644 words. It is catered toward children ages six to ten and everyone who is a child at heart.
