博客來Welcome to Shabbat-time to slow down, light the candles, and discover the magic hiding in the quiet.
When Mike and Maya complain they’re bored, they have no idea they’re about to be swept into a time-traveling adventure with Rabbi Matzah-miracle consultant, sparkle specialist, and full-time Shabbat enthusiast. What starts as a normal Saturday turns into a whirlwind journey through creation, challah, candlelight, and the heart of what it means to rest.
From the world’s first Shabbat to a candlelit table in a long-ago village, Rabbi Matzah: The Shabbat Book is a funny, heartwarming picture book about presence, peace, and the power of unplugging. As Rabbi Matzah guides the kids through time, readers explore how Shabbat can be celebrated in many ways-with blessings, braided bread, family, and stillness.
This beautifully illustrated children’s book blends Jewish tradition with playful storytelling and a touch of magic. Through humorous dialogue, full-page artwork, and thoughtful pacing, it opens up the meaning of Shabbat for kids ages 5 to 10. Whether your family lights candles every Friday or is exploring Jewish traditions for the first time, this book invites all readers to rest, reflect, and reconnect.
