I loved the idea of telling stories through the starts and through family beliefs. I loved the soft illustrations, they seemed almost dream like. Dreamy, nature-filled watercolor, gouache, and pastel paintings beautifully illustrated the Jewish concept of Tikkun Olam, or repairing the world, through an intimate dialogue between a grandchil and grandfather. While based on the ancient mystical teaching of the famous sixteenth century Rabbi Isaac Luria, the gentle inspiring text and soothing illustrations are accessible to readers of all faiths.
