Customer Reviews

Charming illustrations, delightful story.

Zayde Mendel wants to do his share of kindness and cook porridge for hungry people during the great war. The problem is (as Bubbe Hinda pints out) he's never cooked anything in his life! But Zayde keeps asking, "how hard could it be?". Bubbe Hinda is kind to the sick. Zayde Mendel is kind to the hungry -- and both of them are kind to each other. Perfect Porridge is a delightful and highly recommended picturebook story for young readers ages 4 to 8 by Rochel Sandman that is based on true events and charmingly illustrated by Chana Zakashansky-Zverev.
