Why read it?

1 author picked Brand-New Bubbe as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book reminded me that families change and evolve. Jillian is getting a third grandmother, and she’s not sure she needs one more till they embark on making some matzo ball soup. The illustrations in this book are delightful and make the characters come alive.

From Varsha's list on inter-generational themes.
