Wonderful, see a bit of Israel through the eyes of a talents illustrator with a lot of humor.
Over-sized, bilingual (English and Hebrew) board book with incredibly detailed and colourful illustrations. Creative energy jumps off every page.

The first double-page spread has small drawings lifted from

the following pages of the book. They highlight things to search for as you turn the pages. For example, where do the three German nuns travel and how do they save someone's life? How is it possible that Theodore Herzl is watching the the street below from a contemporary Tel Aviv merpeset (balcony)? How are the Breslover chasidim spreading their infectious joy all over the country?

Although designed as a children's book, I purchased this for an adult who loves traveling to and in Israel.
