Publisher's summary

In this heartfelt middle-school drama, Hannah's schemes for throwing her own bat mitzvah unleash family secrets, create rivalries with best friends, and ultimately teach Hannah what being Jewish is all about.

"With a delicious mix of prose, poetry, and recipes, this hybrid novel is another fresh, thoughtful, and accessible Versify novel that is cookin’." (New York Times best-selling author Kwame Alexander)

Hannah Malfa-Adler is Jew...ish. Not that she really thinks about it. She'd prefer to focus on her favorite pastime: baking delicious food! But when her best friend has a beyond-awesome bat mitzvah, Hannah starts to feel a little envious...and a little left out.

Despite her parents firm no, Hannah knows that if she can learn enough about her own faith, she can convince her friends that the party is still in motion. As the secrets mount, a few are bound to explode. When they do, Hannah learns that being Jewish isn't about having a big party and a fancy dress and a first kiss—it's about actually being Jewish. Most importantly, Hannah realizes that the only person's permission she needs to be Jewish is her own.

An incredible middle grade book

This book was fantastic! It was age-appropriate, fun, but dealt well with serious topics. I found it very enjoyable as an adult but would still recommend it for kids. I am impressed by what a skilled writer Aimee Lucido is and I will be checking out her other books. The narrator was also great! However, I think the accompanying pdf I received was for a different book. I am in the process of contacting Audible about this issue.
