About this ebook
As Engineer Ari drives his train to Jerusalem, he stops as friends along the way help him gather branches and fruit for his backyard Sukkah. When the Sukkot holiday begins, he is sad that those friends aren’t with him to join the celebration. But what surprise do his pals Jessie and Nathaniel have waiting for him at the train station? The sequel to Sydney Taylor Honor Award Winner Engineer Ari and the Rosh Hashanah Ride, this book celebrates a very special Sukkot with both new friends and old.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Engineer Ari and his friends Jessie and Nathaniel, who first appeared in Engineer Ari and the Rosh Hashanah Ride, return in this second holiday picture-book adventure. Together the three build their sukkah - a temporary outdoor booth meant to suggest the huts used by ancient Hebrew farmers - in anticipation of Sukkot, the Jewish harvest festival. As Ari drives his train from Jaffa to Jerusalem, his friends along the way give him things he needs for his sukkah, but how can he repay their kindness by inviting them to his celebration, when they live so far away? Fortunately, Jessie and Nathaniel have an idea...Pairing an engaging story about friendship, generosity and a little ingenuity from American author and rabbi Deborah Bodin Cohen with fun, colorful artwork from Israeli illustrator Shahar Kobar, Engineer Ari and the Sukkah Express is a worthy follow-up to its predecessor, and an entertaining holiday title. Both books were inspired by the first trip on the Jaffa-Jerusalem train line, made in 1892, and there is an afterword here giving more information about that historical background. Recommended to picture-book readers looking for Sukkot stories, as well as to young train lovers.
