Publisher's Summary:
Sadie, Ori, and Grandma all love the soft blue "Together Blanket" that Grandma knit when Sadie was born. They use it for building forts, for snuggling, and fun. As Sadie and Ori grow up and as Grandma gets older, too, the blanket continues to bring the family comfort in very special ways.

The story is fun and accessible
Sadie, Ori, and the Blue Blanket is a departure from most of Rabbi Korngoldâs other childrenâs books, which tend to focus on Sadie and Ori learning about specific Jewish holidays or experiences. In this, her latest book, the action instead begins with the childrenâs beloved grandmother knitting a âtogether blanketâ upon Sadieâs birth. From then on, each page details Grandmaâs adventures with her growing grandchildren â teaching them the four questions at Passover as she cooks for the seder, playing ball with them, helping them build a succah, and reading to them wrapped in the âtogether blanketâ. But as time goes on, Grandma is able to do less and less until one day, Sadie and Ori realize they must try to give back to one who has always given so much to them.
The story is fun and accessible, with bright, playful illustrations by Julie Fortenberry. With the text, Rabbi Korngold achieves an impressive balancing act of introducing a confusing, often frightening subject for children â aging grandparents â and making it a springboard for a childâs own growing moral maturity. Sadie, Ori, and the Blue Blanket teaches children â and all of us â that the changes in life are natural and nothing to be scared of, especially if those we care about are there to ease the transition. #Readukkah
Lovely and emotional
I ugly cry EVERY TIME we read it. It's a really lovely story from the Sadie and Ori series (which we already love). Definitely worth getting.
The perfect book to help young children learn about the changing seasons of life ...
Click, click, click went the knitting needles and Grandma knit a âsoft blue blanket the color of the sky.â It was a special blanket Grandma was knitting for baby Sadie, their âTogether blanket.â Grandma and baby Sadie smiled at each other as they rocked back and forth in their rocking chair. The soft blue blanket was just enough to keep them both warm and cozy. At the Passover seder there was the Together blanket in the back of Sadieâs highchair, at a place right next to Grandma at the table. The seasons began to pass and the Together blanket was always with them.
The Together blanket was there during Hanukkah and during Purim as âSadie helped Grandma bake hamantaschen and deliver them to friends.â When Ori was born, click, click, click went the knitting needles and âGrandma made the soft blue blanket big enough to cover all three of them.â The Together blanket was even big enough to cover all of them as they snuggled in that rocker to read stories. This year at the Passover seder there was the Together blanket in the back of Oriâs highchair, at a place right next to Grandma at the table. Of course Sadie was right there on the other side of Grandma!
The Together blanket was there with them when they built âgrand cities out of wooden blocksâ on the floor and rested on the back of the Adirondack chair when they played outside. Grandma was always with Sadie and Ori as was the Together blanket.
