1 Apples and Honey to Blintzes: Library or Classroom Lessons For Preschool By Susan Dubin, Off-the-Shelf Library Services And Susan Rosner, Valley Beth Shalom Sheila Sporn Library Preschool Librarian June, 2013
2 Introduction If you look in bookstores for Jewish stories, you may be under the impression that the only Jewish holiday is Hanukkah. The truth is that there is a wealth of Jewish books about holidays throughout the year. The most important holiday in the Jewish year is one that comes every week Shabbat. Other holidays we will talk about are Rosh HaShanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Simhat Torah, Hanukkah, Tu B' Shevat, Purim, Passover, Yom HaAtzmaut, Lag B'Omer and Shavuot. Some of these holidays have several books and others none. Where there are no books available, we will suggest books with complementary themes or short stories. Jewish books go out of print very quickly. Although most of these books will probably be available in a good library, some may be out of print. If you are lucky enough to have some of these gems, guard them well. Your children will thank you!

39 The Cave in the Library: A Lag B'Omer Story Today is Library Day. When Ella walks through the library doors, she sees a big cave made out of paper where the reading rug usually is. She knows it is just pretend, but the big paper spiders and cotton cobwebs scare her a little. Inside the cave is a make-believe bonfire. Her class sits around the bonfire and waits to hear what this is all about. "Today is Lag B'Omer," Mrs. Sefer, the librarian, says. "Lag is not a real word. It is the Hebrew letter lamed and the letter gimmel. In Hebrew, letters are also numbers. Lag is the number thirty-three. Today is the thirty-third day between Passover and Shavuot. We call the counting of the days between the two holidays the "counting of the omer." "But why do we have a cave, Mrs. Sefer?" Ella asks. "Long ago when the Romans ruled the Land of Israel, Jewish students were not allowed to study Torah. Rabbi Shimon Bar Yohai hid from the Romans in a cave where he lived with his son for thirteen years. Students would come to study with him there. To fool the Roman soldiers, the students would pretend that they were going hunting or on a picnic." "In those days, stories were written on scrolls, like the Torah scroll, not books like we have today. It was easy for the students to roll up their scrolls and hide them in the pouch where they kept their arrows." "Before Rabbi Bar Yohai died, he told his students not to be sad but to have a feast day and celebrate the spirit of Israel on the anniversary of his death. He died on Lag B'omer." "In Israel on Lag B'omer, many people visit the cave on Mount Meron where Rabbi Bar Yohai lived. They have picnics and bonfires to celebrate, just as he requested." After the story, Mrs. Sefer gives each of the children a paper bow and arrow. When she checks out the books, she warns them to watch for Roman soldiers. If they see any, they are supposed to hide their books and say, "We are not learning Torah. We are just going hunting." Ella carefully checks the hallway for soldiers before leaving the library. No Romans in sight! She hopes there will be a cave in the library again next year on Lag B'Omer.
40 Lag B Omer Stories Second grade wrote stories for Lag B Omer. Here are two of them: The Lag B Omer Fairies by Allie Once there were three students. There were 5 bad people. They told the three students You cannot study! The students were sad. But they knew if they found a secret spot they could study. The next day they looked and looked and looked for days and days. They got so tired. Finally they saw a Rabbi. They asked if he knew where a secret spot was. He said, No. But I will look with you. The three students agreed. They looked and looked and looked and looked. Finally, they got tired and hungry. They asked the Rabbi if he had any food. The Rabbi said, I have stale bread and yuckky soup. They ate and ate and ate. Then they were so full. The Rabbi had more stale bread and yuckky soup. Finally the Rabbi wasn t hungry. So they looked and looked and looked and looked until they finally found a hiding place. They studied and studied and studied for as long as they could. And the 5 bad people never found them. The Lag B Omer Story by Sasha There is a holiday called Lag B Omer. Jewish people lived in a little town. Once a wicked king came to their town. He said, You may not study the Torah or keep kosher. So there were three little boys who loved to study Torah. So the first little boy came to a cave, but a black cat bit him and it was an evil black cat. He became evil, and he took his bow and arrow and shot it. He hit a rabbi. This rabbi said, If you study Torah for seven days, you will get powers to read the future and make fantasies come true. Now tell your own story about Lag B Omer.
