"Bright, expressive...Fans of Kayla and Kugel, as well as libraries looking for basic Rosh Hashanah picture books for the youngest readers, may welcome this new addition." -School Library Journal
In this sixth book of the popular series, Kayla and her mischievous dog Kugel prepare for Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. They gather the apples, honey, and challah needed for dinner. Oh no! Kugel is covered in honey! He makes a wet mess while splashing splashes in the pond that Kayla will throw breadcrumbs into later in a ritual called taschlich, and howls along as Kayla and her father practice blowing the shofar. It's all okay. Rosh Hashanah is a time to promise to try to do better in the year ahead.
This series provides an accessible entrance for young children to learn about the Jewish holidays, with bright and fun illustrations and simple language.

"This is Koffsky's sixth 'Kayla and Kugel' book, and it's another holiday winner. Kayla and her frisky dog Kugel highlight Rosh Hashanah symbols like round challah, shofar, apples, and honey and the importance of asking forgiveness during Tashlich. Highly recommend the entire series."
--Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle
