People say that when the angels distributed silliness throughout the world, their bowl tipped over and all the silliness spilled onto the town of Chelm. How do Chelmites know their Elders are the best at solving problems? Because they have the longest beards! This quick and easy read is great for younger kids.

HOLIDAY TALES

Review by Sheina Brocha

Chelm for the Holidays is a collection of short stories that take place in the village of Chelm. Some people say that when the angel distributing souls, he dropped a bag of foolish souls in Chelm! These stories go through the different Jewish festivals but with a silly Chelm twist. For example, they completely run out oil on the eighth day of Chanukah so they try digging for oil, or taking oil from the street lamps, but it's not enough. Until finally they get some oily latkes and put them in the town menorah and light the latkes! I think the book was funny but also short, so it may be better for a younger reader.

Chelm for the Holidays.

Review by RSRSRS

Chelm for the Holidays is a short stories book that has short stories about the foolishness of Chelm. They are a little bit on the shorter side, so I would recommend it for younger readers, but it is still funny all around.

Funny book of short stories

Review by GW4th

I loved all the stories in the book, especially the Rosh Hashana one. The man wanted to do something that would make bees like him, but then he ran away because the bees liked him. That was silly!
