Sweet Babe

An exuberant and interactive picture book for grandparents and their genius, sweet, precious, SO-CUTE-I-CAN'T-STAND-IT! grandbabies, and a celebration of Yiddish and Jewish joy. For fans of Goodnight Bubbala and Leslie Patricelli.

Look at this baby . . . what a genius! And such a shayne punim, too! From the top of baby's adorable head to the tips of their toes, there's nothing for a grandma not to adore in her little bubbeleh. Sweet Babe takes babies and their bubbies, not to mention grandparents of every stripe, on a delightful read-aloud journey that practically cries out for frequent cheek-squishing and keppie (head)-kissing in this irresistible celebration of the connection between grandparent and grandchild, and of Jewish joy through the generations.

Includes a Yiddish glossary at the back with transliterated vocabulary.
