Re: [ha-Safran] Sabbath Spice story

Well, it seems like the door is open for a different try, but in the
meanwhile, there's *Too Much of a Good Thing *by Wasserman.  Here's the
review from Booklist:

Gr. 2-3. This lengthy tale from religious writings tells of King Antoninus,
who is so taken with the Sabbath when he visits the home of his friend
Rabbi Judah that he wants to bring the idea back to his kingdom. But
Antoninus liked to do things *big,* so instead of celebrating once a week,
he orders a Sabbath that's a week long. With everyone resting and no one
working, things soon begin falling apart. It's only when Rabbi Judah visits
the now-distraught king that the problem is solved. This amusing story with
its thoughtful lesson has a lot going for it, but the book might have
trouble attracting an audience. All the characters are adults, and the
pastel artwork emphasizes this, with only a smattering of children
scattered in the pictures. Still, if introduced properly by a parent or
teacher in a religious school, the tale will help kids learn what "too much
of a good thing" really means. The prayers for the Havdalah, the ceremony
to end the Sabbath, are appended. *Ilene Cooper*

*In collections, but simple and clear (perhaps with your own or student
illustrations) are "The Special Ingredient" *f*rom Oberman's *Solomon and
the Ant *and "The Spice of Shabbat" in Rossel's *Sefer Ha-Aggadah, Volume
2.*.

Warm regards,
