Two cousins, Sophie and Sasha, play and work together until a missing shofar comes between them.

This is a heartfelt story about two young children that incorporates many High Holy Day themes, including blowing the shofar and attending synagogue. Bright, richly detailed illustrations capture the liveliness and real-life emotions of Sophie and Sasha as they learn about forgiveness, love, and saying "I'm sorry" during Rosh Hashanah (Jewish New Year).
