DESCRIPTION:

How can you tell when it is time for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur? The young girl in this story can tell when her family receives cards wishing them a happy and healthy New Year. They gather together to light candles for the holiday meal and say blessings over apples and honey. They go to synagogue to pray and hear the shofar. In the afternoon they cast away bad deeds and thoughts from the past year in a flowing river. Yom Kippur, Father explains, is the time when people feed their souls, not their bodies. They atone for the times when they did not do their best. The girl and her family go back to synagogue to pray some more, and when the shofar is blown again, everyone feels clean and fresh, knowing the new year will be good.
