LaSevivon ["To the Dreidel"]. Frankfurt-am-Main – Moscow – Odessa: Omanut, Sifria Gamliel, 1922. Hebrew.
A poem relating the story of the journey of a "dreidel" around the world, by Zalman Shneour (the name of the author does not appear in or on the book; for additional information, see: Ayala Gordon, "Hebrew Illustrations, " 2005, Hebrew, p. 102). Beautiful color illustrations (lithographs) by "Chavurat Tsayarim, Apter, Mutzelmacher, Kravtsov, Higer" (Ya'akov Apter, Moshe Mutzelmacher, Aharon Kravtsov, and Hayyim [Yefim] Higer).
This book was published as part of the "Gamliel" series produced by the "Omanut" publishing house. The books in the series were described as "the first Hebrew books intended for kindergarten children, and they included large colorful pictures the likes of which had not appeared until then in any Hebrew book. All the books in this series were printed using lithographic print, most in a beautiful large format, and the visual aspect in them was perhaps more important than the literary content" (Ayala Gordon, "Hebrew Illustrations", 2005, p. 90; Hebrew).
