Join Baby as she explores the practices and traditions of Judaism with her family. Each day, she wakes up and sees a special object-a Kiddush cup, a shofar, a braided candle, a Torah. Then, with a turn of the page, a lively scene reveals the object in context, opening the door to a world of spiritual exploration.

With simple words and detailed photographs, young children will share Baby's delight as she examines the religiously significant items and people in the synagogue. Explanatory text is provided for adult reference.

The fifth book of the Look What I See! Where Can I Be? series, At the Synagogue introduces children-both Jews and non-Jews alike-to the richness of Jewish celebrations. Children and adults will gain an appreciation of the symbolism and beauty of Judaism's heritage. Perfect as a springboard for multicultural discussions in the classroom as well!
