The word 'shalom' means three different things: 'hello', 'goodbye' and 'peace'. In this sweet, simple tale, Sheep experiments with this triple meaning as she goes about her day on the farm.
The sun is rising, and we follow Sheep as she stops to say 'shalom' ('hello') to each of her friends: 'Shalom, Cat', 'Shalom, Cow, ' 'Shalom, Horse', 'Shalom, Duck'. 'Shalom, Sheep', they all reply!
When the day comes to a close, Sheep realizes she can use this same word to say goodbye to all of her friends, as well: 'Shalom, Cat', 'Shalom, Cow, ' 'Shalom, Horse', 'Shalom, Duck'. 'Shalom, Sheep', they reply once more!
As she tucks herself into bed that night, Sheep remembers that 'shalom' has one more meaning: 'peace'. And with that, surrounded by the moon and the stars, she falls into a peaceful night's sleep.
Sheep Says Shalom is a heartwarming story for young readers, introducing them to Hebrew, teaching them about the joys of learning a language and giving them insights into the Jewish faith and culture. Children will be captivated by this foldout board book with colorful illustrations of animals and nature.
