See below for purchasing options. These 10 eminently tellable tales hold a unique fascination for both children and parents. Some of them are original gems the author has refined from her own imagination, others are classics that have become part of the Jewish home and its oral tradition.
The stories highlight those aspects of each holiday which give it its special flavor, or Yiddishe taam. Each telling reveals a new nuance of the holiday, a new meaning to enjoy and relish. Each story concludes with a "Now Consider This" section, designed to further enrich your child's learning experience. The questions in this section develop the moral lessons described in the stories and serve to help parents and children communicate their own values to each other.
