About this ebook
When Izzy and Olivia Bloom invite their neighbors over for Shabbat dinner, everyone is shocked to find out that the Blooms don't have Shabbat candles. Instead, they have something much more unusual: an antique Sabbath lamp that's been passed down from generation to generation. How did the Sabbath lamp get to America? That's a good story . . .
Author

Michael Herman has a passion for Jewish history and tradition and enjoys collecting antique Judaica. Every Friday evening he lights a 19th-century hanging Sabbath lamp of his own. Michael lives in Chicago, Illinois.
