Product Description
by Rebecca Klempner (Author), Shirley Waisman (Illustrator)
When a friendly alien family's spaceship lands in the Abraham's back yard, Debbie welcomes them with traditional Jewish hospitality. While this story hints at the biblical origins of the tradition of welcoming a stranger, it is the silly antics of these out-of-this-world visitors that will have readers laughing out loud. A note at the back pulls it all together and reminds us that a stranger can be anyone from an immigrant to a person that feels alone because they are different and all deserve our hospitality.
