Book Description
In the tradition of The Year of Living Biblically by A.J. Jacobs and Walking the Bible: A Journey by Land Through the Five Books of Moses by Bruce Feiler comes Abigail Pogrebin’s My Jewish Year, a lively chronicle of the author’s journey into the spiritual heart of Judaism. Although she grew up following some holiday rituals, Pogrebin realized how little she knew about their foundational purpose and contemporary relevance; she wanted to understand what had kept these holidays alive and vibrant, some for thousands of years. Her curiosity led her to embark on an entire year of intensive research, observation, and writing about the milestones on the religious calendar. Whether in search of a roadmap for Jewish life or a challenging probe into the architecture of Jewish tradition, readers will be captivated, educated and inspired by Abigail Pogrebin’s My Jewish Year.

It's a good idea to start off with the best so why wait until your child is older before you start telling the really good stories? Why not start early? You won't find a better book to do it with. The stories are wonderful. The pictures are great. The lessons are practical. Like Yaakov's blanket that became a button -- thanks to a wise Zaidy. Like the king who found the perfect place to build a palace. Like Choni whose prayer brought rain. Like Feivel who learned the hard way that Hashem does what is best. Like Zundel who found a treasure in the strangest place. Shmuel Blitz knows how to tell a story with the best of them and Tova Katz brings it to life with gorgeous illustrations. So huddle the children around you and start to read. They'll go to sleep, but you'll keep on turning pages, as you enjoy this book over and over again.
