The refrain throughout is “Dayenu”—a mind-set of thankfulness, a reminder to be aware of the blessings in each moment. At Nana's, there's matzo ball soup, chicken, coconut macaroons, and of course, the hidden afikomen. After opening the door for Elijah and singing the verses of “Chad Gadya,”Nana tucks the children in for a special Passover sleepover. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e This warm, affectionate story embraces Passover in the spirit of \u003ci\u003edayenu\u003c\/i\u003e, and offers a comprehensive glossary—it’s a perfect read for the entire family in anticipation and celebration of the holiday.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eMore Than Enough\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Works equally well as a primer on Passover and a reminder for any child, Jewish or not, that any day can be filled with things that feel like blessings . . .
