“Much like The Boy In the Striped Pajamas or The Book Thief,” this remarkable memoir from Leon Leyson, one of the youngest children to survive the Holocaust on Oskar Schindler’s list, “brings to readers a story of bravery and the fight for a chance to live” (VOYA).This, the only memoir published by a former Schindler’s list child, perfectly captures the innocence of a small boy who goes through the unthinkable. Leon Leyson (born Leib Lezjon) was only ten years old when the Nazis invaded Poland and his family was forced to relocate to the Krakow ghetto. With incredible luck, perseverance, and grit, Leyson was able to survive the sadism of the Nazis, including that of the demonic Amon Goeth, commandant of Plaszow, the concentration camp outside Krakow. Ultimately, it was the generosity and cunning of one man, Oskar Schindler, who saved Leon Leyson’s life, and the lives of his mother, his father, and two of his four siblings, by adding their names to his list of workers in his factory—a list that became world renowned: Schindler’s list. Told with an abundance of dignity and a remarkable lack of rancor and venom, The Boy on the Wooden Box is a legacy of hope, a memoir unlike anything you’ve ever read. Read more

Torá (תּוֹרָה Torah, lit., «instrucción, enseñanza, doctrina») es el texto que contiene la ley y el patrimonio identitario del pueblo judío; es llamada Pentateuco en el cristianismo;3 y Al-Tawrat por los musulmanes, constituye la base y el fundamento del judaísmo.4El término proviene de la raíz hebrea .י.ר.ה (Y.R.H.), que significa «acometer» y se halla etimológicamente ligado a las nociones de ley, enseñanza e instrucción.5Para el judaísmo, la Torá es la Ley. Según la tradición judía, involucra la totalidad de la revelación y enseñanza divina otorgada al pueblo de Israel. Considerando la importancia de Moisés en este proceso, ambas denominaciones a veces se refieren a la Torá como la Ley de Moisés, la ley mosaica, e incluso ley escrita de Moisés: dado que en el judaísmo, la Torá comprende tanto la ley escrita como la ley oral.6 Ello no es arbitrario dado que su sentido estricto, el término Torá se refiere específicamente a los cinco primeros libros bíblicos, el Pentateuco, al que se conoce también como los cinco libros de Moisés.7 En hebreo se denominan Jamishá Jumshéy Torá (חֲמִשָּׁה חֻמְשֵׁי תּוֹרָה—"Los Cinco Quintos de la Torá"), más habitualmente se emplea la forma abreviada de esa expresión y se llaman y conocen entonces como el Jumásh (חֻמָּשׁ-"Quinto").5En su sentido más amplio, cuando el término Torá implica todos los libros de la Biblia hebrea, los judíos suelen denominarla "Tanaj" (תַּנַ"ךְ). Se trata de un acrónimo para designar a los 24 libros de la Biblia hebrea. El mencionado acrónimo es formado por tres consonantes, T-a-N-a-J, que son a su vez las iniciales de los términos hebreos que designan las tres secciones que forman la Biblia hebrea: T de Torá (Pentateuco), N de Nevi'im (Profetas) y J de Ketuvim (Escritos) Read more

This collection of biographies of brave and brilliant Jewish female role models--selected in collaboration with Ruth Bader Ginsburg and including an introduction written by the iconic Supreme Court justice herself-- provides young people with a roster of inspirational role models, all of whom are Jewish women, who will appeal not only to young people but to people of all ages, and all faiths.The fascinating lives detailed in this collection--more than thirty exemplary female role models--were chosen by Ruth Bader Ginsburg, or RBG, as she was lovingly known to her many admirers. Working with her friend, journalist Nadine Epstein, RBG selected these trailblazers, all of whom are women and Jewish, who chose not to settle for the rules and beliefs of their time. They did not accept what the world told them they should be. Like RBG, they dreamed big, worked hard, and forged their own paths to become who they deserved to be.Future generations will benefit from each and every one of the courageous actions and triumphs of the women profiled here. RBG's Brave & Brilliant Women, the passion project of Justice Ginsburg in the last year of her life, will inspire readers to think about who they want to become and to make it happen, just like RBG.
