5.0 out of 5 stars Thorough, well-thought out, user-friendly., April 28, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Bar & Bat Mitzvah in Israel: The Ultimate Family Sourcebook (Paperback)

"To those who know how difficult it can be to plan a bar/bat mitzvah at the corner synagogue, it may sound completely absurd to try planning one half a world away. But for parents who believe that their child's coming of age would be enhanced by holding the festivities in the Promised Land, there's a new book written by two mothers who have done just that." "Aside from an exhaustive list of synagogues, schools, and kibbutzim all over the country that cater to English-speaking guests of various financial means and religious affiliations, the book covers every base imaginable." "Even if you weren't thinking of holding your child's celebration (or your own; there's information for adult bnai mitzvah, too) in Israel, take a look through this book. It may just inspire you to change your plans." Abigail Klein Leichman, The Jewish Standard/Jewish Community News, April 10, 1998

This review is from: Bar & Bat Mitzvah in Israel: The Ultimate Family Sourcebook (Paperback)

Dear Deborah, Your book is wonderful - from conception to finished product. It makes me wish my children were under twelve. In fact, it's the only thing that makes me wish my children were all under twelve. Kol HaKavod, as we say in Hebrew.
Judith Labensohn, B'nai Mitzvah Coordinator, Neot Kedumim, Biblical Landscape Reserve, Israel
