On Sunshine Kibbutz, everyone has an important job--even an old tractor who finds new purpose with the help of a young friend and a joyful community.

Tractor Zack has always been a hardworking helper on Sunshine Kibbutz. But when his tires go flat and his engine slows down, he starts to wonder if he's too old to be useful. As the kibbutz prepares for the joyful Shavuot holiday, Zack searches for a new job--and a renewed sense of purpose. With help from young Ben and a little creativity, Zack discovers that being useful doesn't always mean doing what you used to do.

Set on a modern Israeli kibbutz, Tractor Zack is a heartwarming tale of resilience, reinvention, and belonging, with gentle humor and a celebration of Jewish culture and community.

A free downloadable activity guide that highlights the themes in this book is available on the Kalaniot Books website.
