The Way Meat Loves Salt: A Cinderella Tale from the Jewish Tradition

Many years ago in Poland there lived a rabbi who had a wife and three daughters. One day the rabbi asks his children a powerful question: "How much do you love me?" His older daughters profess their love in gold and diamonds but his youngest daughter Mireleh declares she loves her father the way meat loves salt. For this remark she is banished from her fathers home. In this flavorful Jewish Cinderella tale Mirelehs courageous journey is peppered with a perfect blend of magic and romance leading to a reconciliation with her beloved father. Lavishly illustrated in Louise Augusts bold linocuts The Way Meat Loves Salt will make a wonderful gift for the Jewish holidays.
