Rosie's Fishing Trip - By Amy Hest

A warm story that celebrates the beauty of spending time with Grampa. This sort of tender children's book is definitely a rare find!  Rosie and her Grampa wake up early, share muffins and chocolate milk, go fishing, write a poem together, and return home to tell Mama all about it.  A wonderful tool for showing today's children that there is much more to life than playing video games and watching television!  The soft illustrations are priceless.

When Jessie Came Across The Sea - By Amy Hest

The heart-warming story of how coming to America changed one little Jewish girl's life forever.  My sisters and I loved reading this gem over and over again, even as adults!  A little longer than some children's books, it is a good story for increasing a youngster's attention span and introducing them to more mature themes.
