In Chik Chak Shabbat, warm community spirit and cherished traditions come together in a lyrical, illustrated picture book. Each page invites readers to celebrate the weekly Shabbat ritual alongside Goldie Simcha, whose much-loved cholent is at the heart of her Friday feast.

When Goldie falls ill and lacks time to simmer her famous cholent, her neighbors rally to recreate the rich, slow-cooked stew—right in line with the playful “chik chak” theme of acting quickly with care. The story blends whimsical artwork with gentle humor, highlighting how compassion and teamwork bring a festive Shabbat back to life.

Perfect for family read-alouds and classroom discussions, Chik Chak Shabbat also includes an authentic cholent recipe, encouraging young cooks to learn about cultural traditions and the value of sharing.

Highlights:

  • Vibrant, playful illustrations
  • Engaging celebration of Shabbat rituals
  • A shared recipe for slow-cooked cholent
  • Themes of community, kindness, and tradition
