A loving, heartwarming picture book about empathy, sisterhood, and finding the courage to ask for forgiveness--and having the grace to give it--both to others and to ourselves.
It's Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, a time for new beginnings. But two sisters don't know how to move forward after the fight they had the night before. As they gather for the ceremony of Tashlich, during which they'll symbolically cast away their regrets from the previous year by throwing bits of bread into a body of water, the sisters reflect on their past mistakes. They can't undo their actions, but they can start fresh again this year, if only they take the lessons of Tashlich to heart.
