Rifka Takes a Bow
by Rebecca Rosenberg Perlov
Age: Kindergarten-2nd grade
Art: Theatre
We see the Yiddish Theatre through Rifkeleh's eyes as she watches her parents get ready for the stage and perform. She even makes a little debut herself (which seemed unlikely, but kids won't care). Suitable for Jewish readers but more so for fans of acting and the stage. Perlov provides fun backstage snippets with detailed descriptions such as putting a beard on, applying makeup, and fun stage tricks. The artwork is full of detail, but sometimes it is a little confusing. For example, one character appears multiple times on the page without a distinctive break in the artwork. There is also a small, odd overlay stamp that Kawa uses throughout her artwork that looks akin to Wingdings (I kid you not). With the right imagination, the artwork should be a hit.
