[1] The Artscroll Children's Siddur
Your youngsters are 4,5,6 years old. They
are just beginning to daven and you want them to enjoy the
“Siddur experience” – because you know that if they love it when
they are little, they will appreciate davening more and more as
they get older and more mature.
This Siddur was compiled by Shmuel Blitz, in consultation
with master teachers. It has the basic prayers with which
children begin their lives. The translations and instructions
are on their level. And they’ll be fascinated by all the “Did
you Knows” and “Closer Looks”. (So will you!) And Tova Katz’s
illustrations! They are lovely and enticing. They’ll keep
children coming back to this Siddur again and again. We
know it will get heavy, heavy use -- that’s why this
Siddur has a strong binding and a stain-proof cover.
If you have a child, a grandchild, a niece or nephew, or you
want to see a big smile on a little face – get them this Siddur.
It is great investment in a youngster’s future! |

[4] Maggid Stories
For Children -- Few books
have so caught the imagination of the Orthodox community as Rabbi
Paysach Krohn’s Maggid series. One after another, they have
captivated readers and become as quoted as any publications in
recent years. And now for the first time, these wonderful stories
are presented for our children on their own level. Here are
seventeen of the best stories in all the Maggid books. All kinds of
stories, about great and ordinary people, children and adults, in
situations that will grab our interest and hold it. When we put down
this book (not an easy thing to do), we’ll take warm memories with
us. And we’ll come back to read it again and again. Chaviva Krohn
Pfeiffer has her father’s knack for picking and telling a story. In
this book, she picks some of the Maggid’s best, and tells them
beautifully. Norman Nodel pitches in with illustrations that are
worthy of the stories. All in all, this is an irresistible book for
children -- one of the best! |

-- Chaviva Krohn Pfeiffer brought delight into countless homes with
her first volume of Maggid stories for Children. As the saying goes,
the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree -- and the daughter is

best-seller, readers clamored for more -- and here they are: more of
the best stories from all the Maggid books. All kinds of stories,
about great and ordinary people, children and adults, in situations
that will grab our interest and hold it. When we put down this book
(not an easy thing to do), we’ll take warm memories with us. And
we’ll come back to read it again and again. Chaviva Krohn Pfeiffer
knows how to tell a story. In this book, she picks some of the
Maggid’s choicest, and presents them beautifully. Norman Nodel and

A Mother's Favorite Stories --
Sheina Medwed knows that values and human
interest are as much a part of a healthy family as cake and gefilte
fish. In this book, she gives us some of her favorites -- all true,
all good, all told with a flair.
These are not stories for children.
They are about mature themes and the challenges of life. We’ll meet
people adjusting to new lands. Some of them discover Judaism for the
first time. Others muster up the courage to survive tragedy and
contribute to others. All in all, this is a book that brings a great
deal to the table, especially at a time in history when there is a
shortage of the sort of stories that make one sit up and smile and
say, “Maybe there’s hope for the world after all!” Readers of
the manuscript have called it a new Maggid book, and that is very
high praise indeed. Interesting characters, solid narratives,
graceful writing, positive messages -- what more could one ask for
in pleasurable reading?

| [8] A
Treasure of Bedtime Stories -- This is one of those rare books
that youngsters will curl up with again and again. Bedtime will
begin with a mother reading a story and pointing to the gorgeous
full-color illustrations, and end with a little head on the pillow,
and this book clutched protectively under it. These twenty-one
stories cover the gamut from gentle humor to profound faith to warm
kindness. The heroes range from kings and sages to wise travelers
and fantasizing laborers. Shmuel Blitz tells a story with the zest
and flavor of an imaginative zaidy or bubby, and when Liat Binyamini
Ariel illustrates a scene, the reader is ready to jump into the
action. Every story will hold a child’s interest and keep him or her
asking to hear it many more times. Add to that a sturdy,
child-resistant binding and you have a sure-fire recipe for many
days and nights of story-telling pleasure. Everyone will have his or
her favorite stories -- but this book will be everyone’s favorite.
That’s for sure. |

Bedtime Stores of Jewish Value --
Honesty, loyalty, piety, generosity, faith -- there is a long list
of virtues that parents and teachers long to inculcate in their
children. Textbooks cannot do it. Preaching often fails. Example is
hard to find. Stories are often the best tool. What can be
more enjoyable than a good story, and what can be more effective
than such a story with a moral subtly woven within it? Such are the
stories in this new offering from the pen of Shmuel Blitz,
illustrated by the brush of Liat Binyamini Ariel, whose
collaboration began with the best-selling Treasury of Jewish Bedtime
Stories. In this new, beautifully illustrated collection, Blitz
tells many stories with a message. Some are familiar. Some are
original. All are adapted for a child’s interest. The reader may
note that many of the stories originate in Talmudic and Midrashic
literature. Others are familiar from generations ago. Here they are
crafted to grab a child’s wide-eyed attention and keep him or her
asking to hear them and feast on their illustrations again and
again. The sturdy, child-resistant binding guarantees many days and
nights of enjoyable, beneficial use. |
