In this facinating companion to her critically praised Clouds of Glory, Miriam Chaikin takes a unique and lyrical approach to familiar stories from the Old Testament inspired by the body of Jewish literature known as Midrash, which in Hebrew means 'to seach and explain'. This collection of eighteen tales follows Moses and the Israelites as they wander the desert, sate their hunger with manna bread, receive the Ten Commandments, and ultimately, reach the Holy Land. Glowing paintings capture the majesty of heaven and the grace of angels who watched over the Israelites during their historic journey. Recommended for ages 7 to 10.
