PreSchool-Grade 1—Sneaking into Josh's backpack, the curious spider in this long-running series experiences his first day at his Jewish school. He hears the story of Noah's Ark, learns about being kind to animals, and observes the children painting, building with blocks, and enjoying a snack. When the youngsters return to the classroom after playing outside, Sammy is discovered. Their first instinct is to step on him, but Josh reminds them about their obligation to be kind to all creatures. This book is a departure from the previous "Sammy" titles in that Josh Shapiro actually sees the spider in this one. The bright cut-paper illustrations help to depict a typical school day. A welcome addition where the earlier titles are popular.—Rachel Kamin, North Suburban Synagogue Beth El, Highland Park, IL

Stories for Children Magazine 5 Star Review,
By Virginia S. Grenier "Children's Author & Stor... (Ivins, Utah USA) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Alef-Bet Yoga for Kids (Israel) (Library Binding)
REVIEWED BY: Wayne S. Walker, reviewer with Stories for Children Magazine
Would you like your children to become more familiar with the Hebrew alphabet? Or are your children interested in yoga? In Alef-Bet Yoga for Kids, Ruth Goldeen, a pediatric occupational therapist who holds a master's degree in Early Childhood Education with a Special Needs emphasis, gives kids an opportunity to recognize letters of the Hebrew alphabet by using traditional and modified yoga poses that allow kids to become the actual letters. Not only can they see how to make alef, bet, and the following twenty symbols by following Bill Goldeen's eye-catching photographs superimposed on the letters, but they also gain the physical benefits of stretching, strengthening, and balancing their bodies. There is also a glossary that explains the different poses. Some parents object to yoga, but those who do not might find this book to be a good tool for both educational purposes and physical activity.

Aleph-Bet Yoga for Kids,
By Jewish Book World Magazine (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Alef-Bet Yoga for Kids (Paperback)
Alef-Bet Yoga for Kids is exactly what you'd expect it to be. The author uses an adorable group of young children, each posed in a yoga position (or a modified position), to represent the letters from Alef to Tav. One Hebrew letter is presented on each page by its name and a small version of the letter. A child is posed in a corresponding yoga position front of a large silhouette of the letter. These brightly colored photographic poses will be easy for children to emulate, and simple for any teacher to use with students to kinesthetically reinforce the shapes of the Alef-Bet. Included at the back of the book are two pages containing all of the letters and their poses. Following that is a two-page glossary with an explanation of each pose and how it helps strengthen and/or stretch parts of a child's body. What a wonderful, kinesthetic and healthy way to reinforce the Alef-Bet! Ages 4-8 Marcie Berneger
