The Garden of Time

By Jill Hammer

Book Overview

"With beautiful images and words, The Garden of Time offers a magical path through the seasons and allows the sacred breath of life to blow through all our souls. Take a walk in the garden; be refreshed and renewed." --Sandy Eisenberg Sasso, author of The Shema in the Mezuzah: Listening to Each Other

In this story based on ancient Jewish legend, Adam and Eve walk through the Garden of Eden, noticing what is happening around them and deciding what holidays they will celebrate based on what they see, smell, hear, and taste. Gorgeous text and art illuminate Judaism, the calendar, and the environment for both children and adults. Includes guides to the Jewish holidays and ancient iconography.
