Kiddo wonders why they’ve invited his friend Max over for a playdate at Mimi’s instead of at his own house. Mimi explains it’s in consideration of Max’s needs, since her house is more accessible. Kiddo learns that the mitzvah of hachnasat orchim, Hebrew for “welcoming guests,” includes making visitors feel comfortable and honored. Families will love Mimi’s retelling of The Candlewick, written by Jennifer Rosner, illustrated by Kristina Swarner, and published by PJ Publishing.
