Full Description
A different way to give back to the community (and help oneself), this cheery outing should not be confined to its Jewish context." -Kirkus Reviews
"The sadness of shyness and the seriousness of mitzvot mix in a charming picture book" -Association of Jewish Libraries
Join Maddie as she discovers her confidence when she decides to become a mitzvah clown to bring smiles to the faces of Grandma and Grandma s friends.
When Maddie sees Giggles the mitzvah clown perform at her grandma's senior home, she decides to join in! She puts on a big red nose and learns how to make balloon animals, sing songs, and most importantly, bring smiles and happiness to Grandma and Grandma s friends. Along the way, Maddie learns how to overcome her shyness, too, and become a more confident and happier mouse.
A cheerful picture book, young readers will enjoy watching how the illustrations begin in black and white and evolve into full and exuberant color as Maddie gains her confidence. A family note at the end includes discussion starters and a description of the Jewish values found in the tale.
