At a Glance from PJ Library:

What is Sukkot?
Sukkot is an eight day harvest festival that begins about five days after Yom Kippur.

When is Sukkot?
Sukkot begins at sundown on Friday, September 25, 2026 and ends at nightfall on Friday, October 2, 2026.

How long is Sukkot?
Five days after Yom Kippur, the moon grows full. It lights up a special celebration called Sukkot (soo-COAT), a harvest festival that lasts for an entire week.

What do people do on Sukkot?
For seven days, the sukkah becomes our temporary home for eating, relaxing, and even sleeping. People shake the lulav and etrog, relax in the sukkah, and welcome guests to join them there.

PJ Library and the Harold Grinspoon Foundation team are sad to learn of the passing of musician, philanthropist, and American legend Dolly Parton. Dolly's Imagination Library helped inspire Harold Grinspoon to found PJ Library in 2005.

When Harold had the privilege of chatting with Dolly in 2023, she shared the following with him: "I am honored to get to help inspire a love of reading in children. They truly are our future."

Harold remembers Dolly as "a truly amazing person--not only a great artist, but a great entrepreneur and philanthropist. We honor Dolly for educating millions, for her remarkable career, her kindness, her art, and especially her generosity."

Listen to some great music and read a beautiful storybook today in her memory. We send our heartfelt condolences to her family, friends, and fans. May her memory be a blessing.
