About the Book

This beautiful tribute to fall festivals—Mid-Autumn Festival and Sukkot—celebrates family, multicultural heritage, and the bounty of the season. Give this to readers who love Two New Years and The Very Best Sukkah. It’s time for Ruby and her family to celebrate two extra-special harvest holidays. For the Mid-Autumn Festival, she and Nainai pick out fruit, nuts, and red chrysanthemums from the store. And with Zayde, Ruby buys a lulav and etrog from the market for Sukkot. But something is missing to truly combine these two celebrations. Can Ruby figure out the perfect way to blend the Jewish holiday of Sukkot and the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival Authors Christina Matula and Erica Lyons, along with talented artist Tracy Subisak, have created a glorious homage to two important holidays while also highlighting the importance of creative problem solving.

Review :
"Will surely invite readers to consider the cultural combinations they're familiar with in an increasingly multicultural world." - Booklist "A suc-cess-ful effort to blend these two mean-ing-ful hol-i-days togeth-er. Beau-ti-fully illus-trat-ed." - Jewish Book Council "Lovely. The authors and illustrator effectively convey the fundamentals of both holidays to newcomers while also providing readers of Chinese and Jewish descent with a wonderful mirror that reflects their experiences. A much-needed exploration of the intersection of two significant Chinese and Jewish holidays." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "This uplifting story twines two cultural practices. Matula and Lyons describe the autumnal events and interpersonal relationships in affectionate prose." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Not only will this inspirational story appeal to readers of all ages, it also contains educational value by providing insights into the traditional celebrations of Sukkot and Mid-Autumn Festival. Readers will enjoy this book as a bedtime story or as part of an art activity event where they make their own mixed-up mooncakes." - School Library Journal (starred review)
