Aubrey Davis - Author
A warm, faith-aware story about a child who wants to thank God for the bagels made at his grandfather’s bakery. It offers a simple framework for discussing generosity, gratitude and the meanings people attach to giving.
Benny loves to help out at his grandpa's bakery in the morning, and the customers love the crusty bagels with their soft insides. When Grandpa explains to Benny that God, not him, should be thanked for the wonderful bagels, Benny sets out to do just that. He decides to leave God a bagful of bagels in the synagogue at the end of each week. And each week God eats the bagels --- or so Benny thinks ... Lovingly told, Bagels from Benny explores the values of caring and sharing, building a strong sense of community and finding joy in giving thanks.
