Synopsis

Nina's boundless energy and limitless imagination must come to a pause in this Shabbat book for modern families.

Meet Nina: She’s energetic, bright, and full of creativity. Her exuberance can not be contained. A race car driver on Monday, a pilot on Tuesday, a construction worker on Wednesday, Nina does not stop moving or creating worlds around her. Nina’s imagination is so busy that she sometimes doesn’t even hear her parents. That all changes on Shabbat when Nina enjoys quieter activities like long walks, naps, and simple conversations. Resting on Shabbat helps her connect with her family and recharge for a new week of creative fun.

"Thoughtful . . . Quirky illustrations blend a child's imagination with reality." —Foreword Reviews
