FYI: Are you raising Jewish kids?
These good folks send Madison a free book about Judaism every month. Your kid must be less than seven to get in on the fun and you need to check that they operate in your neck of the woods. Some of them are good, some of them are not. I was happy to get What Makes Someone a Jew? even though it’s painful to read. (We stick to the pictures.) It’s aggressively multicultural but the rhymes are plain old bad so it ends up being unintentionally hilarious.
My favorite so far is Five Little Gefiltes because it’s intentionally hilarious.
They list all the books they send and you can see there are some great ones on there so hey! If you’re Jewish (or if your kids are Jewish) go ahead and sign up!
I LOVE the five little gefiltes. Someone got it for Bubba and it’s dog-eared already, even though he is way too young too appreciate it.
Thanks so much for recommending this. I am *so* picky about books and this is a great way to preview them for purchase. And I can’t believe they actually had a chapter here that would serve us!
what an interesting idea. seems like a great program (the reading guides look well written too)
