Critics Review

”[Anyone] looking to bring Judaism into his or her family will appreciate page after page of helpful suggestions. Those who already ‘do’ will feel good and strive to do more Jewishly; those who ‘don’t’ but are searching can confidently find a point of entry. A delightful and helpful parenting guide that tackles obvious as well as difficult issues…. An important contribution.”—The Jerusalem Report “Diamant and Kushner help parents raise healthy, happy children with an eye on Judaism’s life-affirming traditions and values.”—St. Petersburg Times
