Excellent Jewish folk story

Young Reuven has a problem - each year the rabbi vanishes for a day before the new year begins, until nightfall. Nobody knows where he goes, but everyone wants the truth - and this year Reuven has been appointed to find out. His decision to tail the rabbi to learn the truth leads to some surprising revelations in this excellent Jewish folk story that holds lessons on trust and understanding.
