Lunario (click to enlarge)

A book for children that sets out to introduce them to the discovery of the Jewish liturgy (Hanukkah, the Sabbath, Yom Kippur, etc.) by using a very special guide: the Moon. An educational approach to the cultural and religious reality of Judaism, which inculcates in young readers curiosity and respect for a tradition and culture that are unknown to them.
