tary of the T-reasury for In-

"Make it known to your children
and toyour children's children:'
—(Deuteronomy 11:9)
Many Jewish parents today encounter serious difficulty in teaching
their children to know and appreciate what it means to be Jewish.
Now, Rabbi Hayim Halevy Donin—author of TO BE A JEW
—has written a companion volume specifically for parents who
seek guidelines in helping their children find meaning and satis-
faction in their Jewish identity: TO RAISE A JEWISH CHILD.
Here is authoritative counsel on such critical areas as • developing
a sensitive awareness of Jewish values • creating the ideal living
environment • finding and evaluating a-Hebrew school • planning
family observances in the home • dealing with problems of peer
group pressure • interdating • intermarriage,
and much more. Rabbi Donin also makes
■
helpful suggestions on various educational
resources, ranging from books and records
to camps, youth organizations, and study
programs in Israel.
TO RAISE A JEWISH CHILD is distilled
from twenty years of Rabbi Donin's
thoughtful answers to the psychological,
social, and religious questions of Jewish
parents. Here he shares the richness of these
intimate, loving encounters.
TO RAISE A JEWISH CHILD. A prac-
tical guide. A perfect gift. A share in aprice-
less tradition. "A candid, warmly written,
useful guide for Jewish parents in search of a
clear, traditional voice to direct them and
their children through the problems of living
fully!'—CHAIM POTOK
