Step-by-step, Sammy Spider is introduced to the holiday of Shavuot, the holiday commemorating when the Jewish people received the Torah on Mt. Sinai. First he watches Mrs. Shapiro make blintzes for Shavuot and just misses being splattered by the hot oil. Then he is sprayed with strawberry juice from the strawberries Mrs. Shapiro is slicing. Finally, he plops into a vase of flowers and gets dusted by pollen. Vibrant cut out illustrations accompany the newest in Sammy's holiday adventures, as he learns about Shavuot and receives a recipe for living. Includes Mrs. Shapiro's recipe for blintzes.
