Not that she really thinks about it. She'd prefer to focus on her favorite pastime: baking delicious food! But when her best friend has a beyond-awesome Bat Mitzvah, Hannah starts to feel a little envious ...and a little left out. <p/> Despite her parents firm no, Hannah knows that if she can learn enough about her own faith, she can convince her friends that the party is still in motion. As the secrets mount, a few are bound to explode. When they do, Hannah learns that being Jewish isn't about having a big party and a fancy dress and a first kiss -- it's about actually <i>being</i> Jewish. Most importantly, Hannah realizes that the only person's permission she needs to be Jewish, is her own.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Hannah is a strong narrator, and the narrative is engagingly interspersed with charming handwritten recipes with notes and scratch-outs, poems that follow a recipe-like format, and passages from the Torah. Food, family, friendships, and Jewish identity are the focus of this moving coming-of-age story. Highly recommended for middle grade collections."--<i>School Library Journal</i> <br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Aimee Lucido</b> is the author of <i>Emmy in the Key of Code.</i> She's a former software engineer, and she got her MFA in writing for children and young adults at Hamline University.
