What others are saying: "There is a lot to like about this book. Besides the simple text for reading, the illustrations are purposeful. My daughter loved it! She colored inside all the lines." --Joshua Roffman, New York, NY "My young son is learning Shema for the first time, and this coloring book makes that accessible. The drawings are quite expressive." --Nirit Wallach, London, UK "I bought this book for my young nephew. By the end of his coloring session, he was able to recite at least one Shema back to me. Best purchase "The font of the text compliments well with the flowing lines of the illustration. Good work." --Joseph Anderson, Sydney, AU "Great book for English-speaking children of the Jewish faith who are learning Hebrew for the first time. The book does an excellent job with transliteration. My 4-year-old daughter can now recite Shema like a pro." --Rachel Rimmel, New York, NY "Good job on the illustrations. My kids loved it!" --Naomi Wright, Las Vegas, NV "A first-time primer for any Jewish child learning Shem. And oh, the drawings are dramatic too!" --Sharon Newman, Piscataway, NJ "Yadah, dear author!" --Liora Eigner, New York, NY "An irreplaceable addition to our weekly Hebrew school." --Nina Drexler, Perth, AU "Will be colored from first page to last." --Abraham Hollis, Seattle, WA "My son enjoyed taking a crayon to this playful art book. But more importantly he was able to learn Shema on his own time and in his own way." --Abigail Neese, Melbourne, AU "My daughter had trouble listening to Hebrew because she is a visual learner, so we bought this book for her. The transliterations below the Hebrew script were easy to read and pronounce." --Judith Krantz, Sydney, AU "A great beginner's book, especially for those living here in The States, where Jewish traditions are losing ground with each new generation." --Ahuva Rosenburg, New York, NY
