Happy New Year Beni is the second of author/illustrator Jane Breskin Zalben's picture-books that I have read, following upon her Happy Passover, Rosie, to feature this extended bear family celebrating the different Jewish holidays. Like that other title, I found the story here engaging, and the accompanying illustrations charming. I appreciated the incorporation of the theme of Tashlikh, something that can also be found in April Halprin Wayland's New Year at the Pier: A Rosh Hashanah Story and Susan Schnur's Tashlich at Turtle Rock. Recommended to picture-book readers looking for cute Rosh Hashanah stories. ( )
