The children's book, now available in English, accompanies the grapevine on its long journey: it starts as a small, wandering pit that strikes roots and develops into a grapevine in the Land of Israel. There it grows grapes and waits until its orlah years are over. Finally, its grapes are brought up to the Beit HaMikdash with great joy.
This educational story imparts the values of growth and patience and familiarizes children with the sanctity of the Land of Israel and its special mitzvot. The story is written in simple, flowing rhyme and accompanied by bright illustrations.
