5.0 out of 5 stars vignettes of life... well-written and involving, April 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Life Doesn't Get Any Better Than This: The Holiness of Little Daily Dramas (Paperback)

This book is for everyone. It is not particularly Jewish, even thought the author is a rabbi. Alper has a real connection to people and the things that make them special. This is an uplifting, interesting package of short, pithy moments and situations. Alper is excellent with language.

By A Customer

This review is from: Life Doesn't Get Any Better Than This: The Holiness of Little Daily Dramas (Paperback)

Rabbi Alper's book is must reading for anyone. He inspires us to find holiness in every facet of our lives. It was especially meaningful because he speaks of all the places I knew as a child. Everyone will enjoy his heartfelt stories and his words of inspiration. This little book provides valuable insight for every reader.

This review is from: Life Doesn't Get Any Better Than This: The Holiness of Little Daily Dramas (Paperback)

Rabbi Alper made vacation at the lake with my tent and boat double the fun by bringing out the joys of life as we all know it, but few express it. The joys are sometimes deep in their meaningfulness, sometimes light and uplifting, but always worth reading and reliving, even when they bring a tear of joy to the eye of the reader - me. Many a vacationeer walked by and saw the title, and called out, "Isn't That the Truth!" They had no idea how much better it was made because of this book.
