Reviews
The residents of Chelm still have no common sense and no luck. They have given up-no longer building houses, repairing sidewalks or planting gardens. When a strange woman comes to town, she offers something better than luck-hope. Sure enough, beautiful butterflies land in the town square and the townspeople catch them under their hats, just as they are instructed to do. But when it begins to rain, the townspeople need their hats to keep dry. Of course, the butterflies fly away, reinforcing the lack-of-luck in Chelm. After a closer look, however, they see a trace of butterfly "powder" left behind under each hat. That seems to be all the hope they need to start rebuilding their houses, sidewalks and gardens. From then on, they focus on the traces of hope they had all along-right under their hats. As with all of Rabbi Sasso's books, the values here can be shared by people of all denominations. The gorgeous illustrations enhance the reader's experience, allowing the reader to feel the excitement and hope as it grows in Chelm, although the Chelm depicted here clearly has no roots in any Eastern European village. The book will inspire readers to look under their own "hats" when they think all is lost. Jewish Book World December 1, 2006, In this story inspired by a Jewish folktale, had luck and bad attitudes are transformed when hope arrives in the form of a woman wearing a red hat and promising butterflies. And when there is hope, renewal begins in the town of Chelm, even though the townspeople's "roofs still leak and their sidewalks are still cracked." The frequent reader of this book will surely discover something new each time in the beautifully detailed and vibrant illustrations. Butterflies Under Our Hats would make a nice addition to the congregational library to complete a set of the fine children's books written by Rabbi Sasso. For ages 4-8. church and synagogue library association July 13, 2006, Like Ann Redisch Stampler's retelling of the traditional shtetl folktale Shlemazel and the Remarkable Spoon of Pohost, Sasso's original story also plays with the limits of luck. This time, however, things work out - but not because of work and love. In Chelm, legendary home of the Yiddish fools, there is no luck: "If something could go wrong, it did." And so the people give up---until a stranger comes to town who says that hope is better than luck. The newcomer brings in a cloud of fluttering butterflies, and even the trace of their presence brings hope. The wry Yiddish folk idiom is not a big part of the storytelling, and the impressionistic pictures (sometimes in the style of Chagall) may be too crowded for the young audience. But double-page spreads of the fluttering butterflies are gorgeous, and they bring home the message that there is something stronger than good fortune. Hazel Rochman Booklist July 16, 2006

- e***- (122)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufUnfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.
- v***v (2106)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.How to chalk talk, by Harlan Tarbell (Nr. 197064259889)
