Re: [ha-Safran]: Looking for a certain tale
I have this wonderful book for the little ones in my library. Here is a suggestion. Recently I have had great luck finding books that I want on the out of print sites like Abebooks and Alibris. Ill bet there are a few available somewhere. You might not get it in time for this year but then you would have it in your collection.

Re: [ha-Safran]: Looking for a certain tale
If you find it, let us all know! Another story children's librarians might want to know about is Sorry by Jean Van Leeuwen. It is not a Jewish book, but the story is perfect for the season. Unfortunately, it is out of print, but school and synagogue librarians may be able to borrow a copy from the local public library for teachers to use this month.

[ha-Safran]: Looking for a certain tale
... about two quarreling towns, separated by a wall. Two children see each other through a crack, and eventually take down the wall, stone by stone. There is also a mingling of music/melodies as part of the story. The closest I could find to this is Sandy Sasso's God Said Amen, and she doesn't really credit a source story that sounds like the one I described. Does anyone know the story I'm seeking?
