Can you guess...

For forty days the town of Plochnik had not seen rain. The rivers and lakes had dried up, the cows were suffering from thirst and not giving milk. But the shoemaker Shmuel managed to fix the situation and bring the long-awaited rain. The rabbi and all the respected citizens of Plochnik were very surprised — after all, Shmuel seemed quite foolish, he couldn’t even pray properly. Where did this poor shoemaker get such power? No one could understand this until one day the rabbi had a strange dream…

American writer Francine Prose and artist Mark Podval uncovered the mystery of Shmuel, the mystery of the holy Lammed-Vavniks, and retold this ancient legend in a book that can now be read by both children and adults.
