Book Review: Vampires Don't Observe Shabbos by Michelle Franklin, illustrated by Jonathan Burrello

A copy of this book was sent to me in return for an honest review~

Funny picture book cover featuring a vampire celebrating Shabbat. Title: Vampires Don't Observe Shabbos

I always really enjoy reading these books! Each book in this series uses fantasy creatures and humour to introduce a Jewish topic. They are quick reads filled with cute funny pictures throughout. I love finding out more about each event. For this book, it was Shabbos. We learn about when it is, how long it is for, what Jews do during it (and what they can't do).

This book was so fascinating and a really good experience. I learnt more and I had a fun time reading.

I highly recommend all of the books in this series!
