About this ebook

Passover starts tonight and Zayde is babysitting for Ruthie—his first time by himself! Mommy has left a list of things to do: Buy parsley at the grocery store for the seder plate, go to the playground so Ruthie can use up energy, then use up more energy at home because seders last a long time. And be sure Ruthie takes a nap. But who exactly is babysitting whom as an afternoon of shenanigans ensue?

This charming picture book tells the story of Ruthie's grandfather babysitting while everyone prepares for the Passover Seder. Ruthie has a lot of fun with Zayde, and readers will have lots of fun with their antics. The text is quite simply a list of instructions for Zayde. But the fun is in the delightful illustrations by Kate Chappell. Mom may have had one idea when she wrote that list, but Ruthie and Zayde have quite a different day in mind. Readers will love this story as much as the kids.
