Times are hard and eleven year old Faige seeks a way to earn money for her family, who have given all theirs away and don't have enough to buy an etrog for Sukkot. Her tag-along little sister is a bother to Faige until she helps her find a way. Set in a shtetl, written in short, easy to read chapters, and nicely paced, this is part of a series that features brave, religiously observant children doing mitzvot.
