On Friday Afternoon

Coming April 30, 2024. Pre-order today!

By: Michal Babay / Illustrated by: Menahem Halberstadt

The Friday afternoon mitzvot turn into a rambunctious picture book adventure as their family gets ready for Shabbat!

There’s only three hours until Shabbat, and there’s a lot to do! Friday afternoon’s mitzvot of cleaning the house and collecting donations go sideways with Leelee and her dog, Pickles, at the helm. But with so many items on their to-do list—and the distraction of Mom’s warm challah rolls—will the family be ready in time for the candle lighting?

A rhythmic, incredibly silly, and heartwarming glimpse inside a Jewish home as they prepare for Shabbat.
