5.0 out of 5 stars Finally a user friendly Commentary for Children, December 8, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Tell It from the Torah (Hardcover)
After searching for months for a book that my son could independently pick up on his own and enable him to discuss points of the weekly parsha at the Friday night table I found it in "Tell it from the Torah". It covers the material in depth in a way easily understood by children (8-13), gives stories of the sages (from Pirkei Avot) in connection with the parsha, gematria, and humorous anecdotes. Also wonderful is the connection with the Haftorah. This is a great tool for kids to come up with their own Devar Torah.

5.0 out of 5 stars a worthwhile purchase, May 5, 2001

This review is from: Tell It from the Torah (Hardcover)
I had been searching for a book which I felt was suitable for my 9 yr old. I found most bible books had a christian bent, which was not my desire. Not only was this book on an appropriate level for my son, it kept his interest, which is half the battle
