Summary
When a big snowstorm hits, Monty Nudelman happily shovels his neighbors' sidewalks, driveways, cars, and steps - until he hurts his back. Now he can barely move! He can't even make his Shabbat lunch. Luckily, his neighbors have all made cholent - a delicious Shabbat stew. The neighborhood kids form a "cholent brigade" to bring Monty Nudelman a tasty feast. Cholent to the rescue!

Critic reviews
"Not only is Michael Herman’s The Cholent Brigade...a heartwarming story about one good deed deserving another, it also portrays...a diverse Jewish population." (The Jewish Chronicle)
"This sweet, simple story of friendship, bikkur cholim (visiting the sick)and tikkun olam (repairing the world), is a wonderful lesson for the current times." (Association of Jewish Libraries)
"The acts of kindness don't feel like a plot convention. They feel like a philosophy for life. It's touching to see a town where kindness is no surprise." (Kirkus Reviews)
