Honesty, loyalty, piety, generosity, and faith--these are the virtues that are subtly woven within the wonderful storytelling of Shmuel Blitz. In this 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 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 their eyes on their illustrations again and again. The sturdy child-resistant binding guarantees many days and nights of enjoyable use. Beautifully illustrated by Liat Binyamini Ariel. (Hard cover-48 pages)
