  10. 📖 Tevye the Dairyman & Motl the Cantor's Son 📚

    As a big fan of Fiddler on the Roof, I decided I should read the original Tevye stories. First published in 1894, Tevye 'tells' Aleichem the tales of his family, focusing on six of his seven daughters, Tzeitel, Chava, Hodel, Shprintze, Taybele, and Bielke. I was surprised by how different these tales proved to be from musical.
    But the highlight here is the delightful adventures of the 'orphan' Motl in Aleichem's unfinished novel Motl and the Cantor's Son. These tales take us on the journey from poverty in the Shtetl, across Europe to the promise land of America. Motls' take on life is endearing and funny. I am amazed that these stories have never made it to film!

  13. Matzah Bakery

    Illustration by Linda Feinberg

    "I based this illustration off a photo I took at the matzah bakery in Kiryat Sanz (Netanya, Israel). The bakers were being timed by a rabbi with a stopwatch (not pictured), to ensure the entire process, from beginning to end, doesn’t exceed the strict 18-minute time frame required for kosher matzahs."

  17. I understand, starting to learn a new language, especially one as unique as Hebrew, can bring up a lot of fears and doubts.

    You might be wondering, "Will it take months to get the hang of this? Will I even be able to grasp it?"

    Let me reassure you, with my best-selling Hebrew 1, 2, and 3 series, these worries can be put to rest.
