Rashi's Daughter, Secret Scholar
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-06-24 Summary: A great book for Children...unless ... Having read the first two volumes of Rashi's Daughter's I ordered this immediately upon Amazon making it available, March 28, 2008.I didn't know it was for readers "ten and up." I assumed (always a bad idea) that it would be about the third daughter, Rachel. Silly me. It is a re-telling of the story of Jocheved for younger readers...unless they have read the first two volumes. I will give the book to a young girl, a friend's daughter. I am sure she will find it fascinating. My disappointment is more than likely my ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-02 Summary: I bought this for my grand daughter ... I bought Rashi's Secret Scholar for my grand daughter. Although she is an excellent reader she would prefer to do anything else but read. This book however, caught her attention and she couldn't put it down. She really enjoyed talking with me about how people lived so long ago.... Discussing the differences between today and the past. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-21 Summary: Buying this to put in our family library ... I'm buying this to put in our family library. I read the original version of this book, which was more for adults. I think when my daughter is older, it will make an excellent addition to her Judaic education. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-19 Summary: Prequel to Joheved ... Overall a nice read. I really liked the way this book portrayed the period that it was written in. It also has a nice feminist bent. The book shows that with determination and knowledge, a girl can make a place for herself in a man's world. Here's how the plot went: Joheved's father, the future Rashi, is a Jewish scholar, who teaches her Talmud even though girls aren't supposed to study this and her mother thinks no man will marry her if she's too educated. But she and her sister study anyway and in the end, Joheved ...more

The Nazi Olympics, Berlin 1936 (United States Holocaust Museum)
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2002-05-27 Summary: Absolutely wonderful! ... This large and attractive book tells the story of the 1936 Summer Olympics held in Berlin. Many Americans have heard of them, though their knowledge is limited to the fact that Jesse Owens, an African-American, won four gold medals, humiliating Adolf Hitler. This book tells the story of those Olympics from the choice of venue in 1931, through the rise of Hitler and National Socialism, the Nazi racial policies, the movement to boycott the games, the Olympics themselves, and finally on to the aftermath of the games and ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2003-11-26 Summary: Nazi Olymics ... The book I read on the Holocaust was called The Nazi Olympics: Berlin 1936 by Susan D. Bachrach. This book is about the Olympics held by the Nazis. In this book, it tells about the steps Nazis took to hold the Olympics. It also tells you where exactly the Olympics were held. This book is not a book that actually tells a story, it is a factual book that tells facts and gives you images to describe the facts. Adolf Hitler was head of Germany's Government. In 1931, Berlin was chosen as the site of the 1936 Summer Games. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2001-06-24 Summary: High quality writing, graphics and layout ... The most striking feature about The Nazi Olypmics is the layout. Photos from the Library of Congress, National Holocaust museum, and a variety of personal and corporate collections are nicely arranged. The illustrations emphasize that Nazi propaganda convinced participating countries that the 1936 Olympic Games were going to adhere to the Olympic code and be inclusive of all peoples and faiths. Magazine covers, newspaper headlines, political cartoons, and pictures of segregated Nazi and Jewish sports clubs reinforce ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | "Here is the story of the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin during which the German Nazi Party attempted to turn the Games into a propaganda vehicle for its own political agenda. This fascinating book, based on an exhibit mounted by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, tells the story of those infamous Olympics. Profiled are the organizers, the politicians, and most important, the athletes: those who boycotted the games, those who were banned from participating, and those who competed....more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2007-10-19 Summary: My Guardian Angel ... I absolutely love the stories about Rashi and his girls. I find them both fascinating and inspiring. Rashi was one of the most famous rabbis and Jewish scholars of any age. He lived in France around the time of the first crusade. Unfortunately, Rashi never sired any sons to pass on his scholarly gifts. He did however have daughters. Unprecedented in his efforts, Rashi taught his daughters (and later his grandchildren) to read and write. A few even defiantly studied the torah at a time when the mere thought of this ...more

Twelve-year-old Elvina is the granddaughter of the great Rabbi Rashi. She has a curious and lively nature and a thirst for knowledge. Her goodness of heart and her knowledge of Torah lead her to assist a wounded Crusader, despite his the cruelty the Crusaders show to the Jews in 11th century France. The guardian angel of the title provides a listener for Elvina's thoughts and worries. Elvina and her grandfather are real historical ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Feisty and smart, Elvina is not your average twelve-year-old. She adores reading, writing, and studying, like the boys. And she detests silly girls' chores, like keeping chicken eggs warm until they hatch. But she is also skilled in the art of healing, a skill that ultimately gets her into trouble. It's the 11th Century in France, and the Crusaders are on a campaign to rid France of Jews. The Jews live in terror and are on high alert that danger is drawing near to their town. One night,...more
