Description

From Lisa Greenwald, the beloved author of the TBH and Friendship List series, comes a new series about a girl trying to save her family's deli.

Ellie’s family owns the town deli. Its official name is Lukshen Deli, but everybody calls it Ellie’s Deli.

When a restaurant group threatens to move in and take over, tenacious Ellie and her BFFs must prove that matzo ball soup and sour pickles are here to stay, in this adorable new middle grade fiction series with recipes and illustrations throughout. WINNER OF THE 2023 EARPHONES AWARD (AUDIOBOOK) When Ellie accidentally overhears that her family deli is most likely going to close, she does the only thing she can think of.

She makes a wish on matzo ball soup. Eleven-year-old Ellie is feisty, determined, and a little bit anxious.

She considers Lukshen Deli part of the family—after all, it’s been around for four generations, ever since her great-grandmother opened it.

Along with her BFF, Ava; her sisters, Anna and Mabel; her lunch buddies, Aanya, Brynn, Nina, and Sally; and her grandparents, Bubbie and Zeyda, Ellie is determined to prove that old fashioned Jewish delis can get with the times—but if her plan doesn’t work, the deli will be sold for good.  Ellie’s Deli: Wishing on Matzo Ball Soup contains over 30 charming black-and-white illustrations and 14 recipes for quintessential Jewish American deli food, like challah, chicken soup, blintz souffle, and ruggelach.

It’s a delightful story about sticking up for what you believe in, business ownership, friendship, and family. "A cute and concretely Jewish take on a classic storyline." - Kirkus Reviews
