Jewish Children is a collection of stories written about children in a shtetl, but it is a book for adult or young adult readers, telling about life through the eyes and experiences of children. Community life in the shtetl was structured around the rabbi, the Cheder (the school for learning Torah and Talmud), the holidays, and Shabbat. Sholem Aleichem opens a door for us into that life. As a reader, you will laugh at times and be sad at times, as he narrates these stories that are gems of everyday life. Sholem Aleichem is one of the founding figures of the Yiddish literature movement. He was born in 1859, and he began writing as a teen-ager. In his mid-20's he published his first work in Yiddish, adopting the name Sholem Aleichem, a variation on the Hebrew greeting, shalom aleichem, which means "peace be with you." Yiddish was not consideration a proper language for literature in many circles, but it was the colloquial language for most East European Jews, which was his audience. He published more than forty books and had a wide international following. The book that was to have the broadest influence was Tevye the Dairyman, published in 1894. Although the original work had been read by thousands of people, when it was adapted for stage and screen as Fiddler on the Roof, it became one of the most popular productions of all time.

Winner, 2021 Reference & Bibliography Award in the 'Reference' Section, given by the Association of Jewish Libraries An unprecedented treasury of Yiddish children’s stories and poems enhanced with original illustrations While there has been a recent boom in Jewish literacy and learning within the US, few resources exist to enable American Jews to experience the rich primary sources of Yiddish culture. Stepping into this void, Miriam Udel has crafted an exquisite collection: Honey on the Page offers a feast of beguiling original translations of stories and poems for children. Arranged thematically—from school days to the holidays—the book takes readers from Jewish holidays and history to folktales and fables, from stories of humanistic ethics to multi-generational family sagas. Featuring many works that are appearing in English for the first time, and written by both prominent and lesser-known authors, this anthology spans the Yiddish-speaking globe—drawing from materials published in Eastern Europe, New York, and Latin America from the 1910s, during the interwar period, and up through the 1970s. With its vast scope, Honey on the Page offers a cornucopia of delights to families, individuals and educators seeking literature that speaks to Jewish children about their religious, cultural, and ethical heritage. Complemented by whimsical, humorous illustrations by Paula Cohen, an acclaimed children’s book illustrator, Udel’s evocative translations of Yiddish stories and poetry will delight young and older readers alike.
