This item is either out of print or otherwise unavailable.These are stories that have been published in the magazine Talks and Tales. The books feature stories on a wide range of subjects: Festivals; Tzaddikim and Scholars' Jewish life in Eastern Europe in medieval and pre-Holocaust times' the Holocaust'; heroic episodes of keeping Judaism alive behind the Iron Curtain, heart-warming stories for young and old. The reader will find them all highly interesting and educational. Many are based on authentic tradition and have, at least, an authentic core. All the stories have one basic characteristic in common: educational and didactic merit - framed within a wholesome character-building story, in keeping with the best moral traditions of our Jewish people. Each volume is illustrated by a reknown Jewish artist and includes a glossary of Hebrew, Yiddish and foreign terms.
