Bedtime Stories of Torah Values
By Shmuel Blitz
|
The Bedtime Story Man is back with his latest collection of beautifully told stories. This time Shmuel Blitz goes back to the greatest source of all -- the Torah and Prophets.
Those timeless lessons are retold here with reverence and charm. Faith, kindness, forgiveness, charity -- the values we all want our children to absorb. Preaching doesn’t do it. Stories can (coupled with example, of course).
In this wonderful book, the stories are lovingly told by Shmuel Blitz and charmingly illustrated by Tova Katz.
It’s a wonderful addition to Blitz’s distinguished shelf of children’s books. Don’t miss it!

Bible Heroes I Can Be
By Ann Eisenberg

Like Noah, I can build...Like Rebecca, I am kind to animals...A first introduction
to favorite Bible heroes and heroines. Introduces such Biblical figures as Noah,
Rebecca, and King David and shows how their accomplishment and attributes
can be emulated in modern life.
Description from Publisher
Kar-Ben's output has been improving, and the publisher is becoming a
contender in that portion of Jewish children's literature which straddles
the Reform-Conservative-Modern Orthodox points of view. . . . The
drawings splash across both facing pages, and are well done. The text
runs like this: 'Noah built an ark. I can build lots of things.' Shown is
Noah working on the ark, upon which is superimposed a little girl building
a sand fort. Abraham and Sara welcomed guests, Rebecca was kind to
animals, and so on. You get the idea.
Description from Small Press
Very young children meet major Old Testament heroes
and heroines in terms they can relate to: "Noah built
an ark. I can build lots of things." Some of the
characters portray qualities worthy of children
adopting: "Rebecca was kind to animals. So am I." A
large illustration of the Biblical character is
framed with a small accompanying picture of a modern
child performing an appropriate activity. Of the 11
figures chosen, four are women. The page layout is
uncluttered, with crisp, colorful illustrations
