Editorial Reviews

"Sadie and her younger brother Ori return in a fifth story filled with more sweetness than Judaica. The two delightful youngsters - very recognizable thanks to the same illustrator as the other books - are off to Jewish sleep-away camp. Three items provide the entire Jewish content: the setting, a 'shalom' greeting, and a statement that at camp Sadie does not have to explain things as she does at school where she is the only Jewish child in her class. The fiction is soundly mainstream and soundly positive. This picture book's lively text and sprightly pictures present a predictable ending that works for readers' hearts and the plot. Sadie looks forward to seeing her camp friends again, while Ori, attending for the first time, is nervous about not sleeping with his favorite stuffy, Nuggles. Torn between sleepless nights and being called a baby by his peers, Ori tries his parents' suggestion only to decide Nuggles must go with him. When his counselor takes him to his cabin he finds all his bunkmates have stuffies too. While not as cute as Tamar Fox's No Baths at Camp (AJL Reviews, Feb./Mar. 2013), this quiet story is recommended for its warmth, its understanding of human nature, and for its inviting delivery of Jewish camp for the very young about to sleep away for the very first time." — AJL Reviews
