Cheering On Jewish Books, A Hanukkah Gift for You

LISTEN TO THE PODCAST    |    READ THE TRANSCRIPT

    🕮    For Hanukkah 2024, I got you a Jewish Book Advocacy Kit! Let me explain.

My local public library invited me to give an online talk in honor of Jewish Book Month. As I thought about what to say, I remembered great advice from my friend, author Liza Wiemer, about all the small simple things that anyone can do to support Jewish literature - and bingo, I had my topic.

Here's an edited recording of that talk I gave, with practical, actionable tips, and suggestions for Jewish books you'll love. If you'd like to see my slideshow, you can watch the same talk on YouTube. And be sure to check out this very useful presentation handout.

For even more books you'll love, check out my annual unofficial Sydney Taylor Book Award shortlist to see what I think is the best Jewish kidlit of 2024, at bookoflifepodcast.com.

Happy Hanukkah, Happy New Year, and Happy Reading!
