Sinossi
"A wise, thought-provoking tale about the true meaning of charity."- Kirkus Reviews
"I know it's a mitzvah to help others," Hanina said. "And it's also a mitzvah to make sure you don't embarrass someone."
Hanina Chipmunk's favorite thing to do is gather nuts and share them with her hungry friends. But not everyone is thankful for her good deed. When Hanina realizes Mathilda Squirrel is embarrassed to admit she needs help, she hatches a plan to deliver nuts in secret under the midnight hour. As a daytime animal venturing out at night, Hanina will need all the wits and bravery she has to complete her mitzvah.
- Based on the retelling of a 2,000-year-old story from the Talmud (Jewish book of law)
- Educational endnotes include more information about the original tale in the Talmud, the Jewish value of tzedakah (helping those in need) and other similar traditions across different religtions.
- Teaches kids about generosity, empathy and the power of anonymous charity
