This is a collection of Post-Biblical Jewish stories, written
for 3rd to 4th graders.
However, this book is also thoroughly enjoyable for adults, not the least
because of the finely-drawn illustrations.
The anecdotes include sublime Talmudic humor, tales of
resistance to injustice and persecution, and profound spiritual lessons.
It also includes many incidents of cooperation between Jews, Christians,
and Muslims.
Written in a time of looming peril for Jewish people, this book
is still meaningful to people of all faiths today.
