Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Chaim-Avrohom-Zalman-Mendel isn't just your ordinary Jewish kid with a whole lot of middle names --- he is an expert sneezer. HIs sneezes are so big, loud, strong, and powerful that every Jewish holiday in the town of Pinsk ends in chaos.

When Chaim-Avrohom he sneezes on Rosh Hashana, apples split into slices, and the chickens from kapparos come back to life. At Channukah, it stops snowing and starts raining dreidls. On Simchas Torah, the Torahs dance out into the street. When he sneezes on Yom Kippur, everyone's kittel needs to be sent to the cleaners!

The people of Pinsk are flummoxed. What can be done about Chaim-Avrohom that won't hurt him or embarrass him?

This funny tale about a boy with monstrous sniffles reinforces themes about the Jewish holidays, as well as the importance of good middos. Children will laugh and learn.

Makes a great Chanukkah gift, Birthday present, classroom book, or anytime read. But be careful, Chaim-Avrohom's sneezes just might blow you away.
