The Ceiling

THE CEILING is a spectacular and unique picture book for adults and children of all ages. Author Wanda Peretz and illustrator Boris Shapiro bring to vivid life the lost world of Jewish life in pre-war Poland. It tells the true story of Isaac and Israel, two artists in 18th century Poland who painted an extraordinary ceiling mural in a wooden synagogue in the town of Gwoździec. This enthralling book features gorgeous artwork and charming rhymed verse that children will love.
