"All-of-a-Kind Family (All-of-a-Kind Family, #1)" by Sydney Taylor
This is a great little book. It took me back to the late 1800's east side of New York where the melting pot of Jews and other nationalities made New York so exciting and vibrant. Full of anecdotes which showcase the beautiful simplicity of this Jewish family as they try to make ends meet and celebrate their family's beliefs and the diversity that makes up their world, this book is a gem that has been lost. It is definitely a dated piece but is full of everyday information from the era that has largely been lost to us, but for the right child, this is just a treasure trove of fun. Intend to pass this on.
