Title: Torah Our Treasure
Author: Etti Golzand
Illustrations: Batsheva Ravad
Publisher: Feldheim
Femo clay figures adorn the lap-sized pictures of a Torah-in-the-making as many goals are met in one book. Torah Our Treasure holds simply explained realities about the entire Torah-making process, insights about safrut, and builds upon the excitement of making a hachnassat sefer Torah, all in the context of an imaginary folktale. The educational hitorerut comes together to satisfy childish curiosity as it promotes a growing appreciation for the halachic heritage of the Torah-loving world.
One in a series of Show ‘n Tell Window Books by Feldheim, Torah Our Treasure includes an informative glossary at the back. That language-skill builder along with the factoids and adult-oriented commentary sprinkled throughout the book can educate older readers as they amuse younger listeners.
The innovative spiral-inside a hardcover binding makes the big pages easy to turn and less likely to tear from little fingers pulling the wrong way.
