Presents eight stories about the biblical prophet Elijah, set in a variety of time periods and in places all over the world where Jews have lived. ( ) Stephanie Zvirin (Booklist, April 15, 1999 (Vol. 95, No. 16)) An author's note and an introductory chapter titled "A Journey with Elijah" give readers an idea of the prophet Elijah's place in Jewish (also Christian and Islamic) folklore and religion. The eight tales that follow, all very strong retellings, reinforce the introductory information by depicting Elijah in his various roles--as teacher, mysterious stranger, miracle worker. Informative headnotes preface each of the tales, some of which Goldin has altered to better reflect the different places (from China to North Africa to the Caribbean) where Jews have made their homes, and the different times (ancient to the nineteenth century to modern Israel) during which they've made their way. Pinkney's realistic paintings, humble yet earthy, are as vibrant as Goldin's retellings, reflecting characters and background of diverse cultures with vigor, heart, and color. Category: Middle Readers. 1999, Harcourt/Gulliver, $20. Gr. 4-7. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
