My love of intergenerational stories is well known. There's something about the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren in particular that just translates beautifully to stories for young children. So for our second story for the upcoming Jewish holiday this week, I've chosen "The Art Lesson: A Shavuot Story" (2017) by Allison and Wayne Marks, illustrated by Annie Wilkinson. This one is a sweet, light-hearted story about Shoshana, a little girl who loves spending time with her artist grandmother each week, and the special artwork they create to decorate for Shavuot, based on crafts from her grandmother's own childhood. Instructions in the back to create papercut artwork of your own, as well as information about artists mentioned in the story, add a little something extra to the book. A great story both for the holiday and artistic kids in general! 🎨 🎨 🎨 #NoodlenutsKidsBooks #TheArtLesson #AShavuotStory #Shavuot #Shavuos #AllisonMarks #WayneMarks #AllisonandWayneMarks #AnnieWilkinson #PJLibrary #Bubby #Bubbie #intergenerational #intergenerationalstories #grandmothersandgranddaughters #grandma #artlessonsforkids #chagall #modigliani #artforkids #JewishBooks #JewishHolidays (at Bubbie's House) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAsnRMHnViX/?igshid=1qj03i0spv4kt
