It's not the new year for everyone, but for those who practice the Jewish faith it is! If you are interested in learning about holidays around the world, be sure to click the catalog button at the bottom of this post and view search up our holiday books. Or, if you are interested in learning more about Jewish culture (looking at you all my WWII readers!) type "Jewish" into the catalog and see what comes up!
Here's a bit more info on Rosh Hashana from National Today: Rosh Hashanah, literally translating to ‘head of the year’, is the Jewish New Year, starting on the first day of Tishrei — the Jewish calendar’s first month. On the Gregorian calendar, the Jewish New Year will be celebrated this year from sundown on September 6 through sundown on September 8. As of 2021, the two-day celebration marks the start of the year 5781 on the Jewish calendar.
