In a faraway village, can anyone make the royal prince smile?

Zlatah Leah is a capable girl, talented in many things. One day, she joins her village’s effort to make the prince smile again and takes her challah-baking expertise to the royal palace. She is sure that she has just what it takes to turn things around, but after nothing seems to work, she wonders if anyone at all can succeed. Can she?

The Challah Girl is a beautifully illustrated Jewish folktale about the power of prayer and tears that the whole family can enjoy.

    Zlatah Leah is known for making the most delicious challah in her village. When word comes that the prince is unable to laugh or smile despite the efforts of many, Zlatah Leah uses her special gifts to try to heal him. Her sincerity and compassion, along with her gift for baking might make all the difference. Beautiful story with the lyricism of an old tale.
