“This is a unique book about a young, adventurous girl […] She’s by no means a girlie girl, and with her Doda Gili she can be her authentic self […] children will be struck by the life-like, multi-dimensional illustrations that grace the pages.” —Jennifer Padgett, Manhattan Book Review
“I’d like for American readers to have broader access to depictions of Jewish flourishing, including in Israel, as in Janice Hechter’s Adventure Girl: Dabi Digs in Israel. To be seen in our wholeness and complexity and to see others in the same way — this is part of what these books can offer.”—New York Times
