Yiddish Wisdom for Parents, trans-
lated and with an introduction by
Rae
Meltzer, with illustrations by
1
Kristina Swarner. Copyright 2001,
published by Chronicle Books.
Hardback. 80 pages. $10.95.
Trying to find the perfect present for
iew parents can be as challenging as
dentifying meaningful dialogue in
`Baywatch."
The latter may, alas, forever elude
Is, but Yiddish Wisdom for Parents is
ndeed a real treasure not only for
iew parents, but for all Jewish par-
nts.
The illustrations are incomparable.
Kristina Swarner, a native of
Thicago, has created pictures that
-
not only more than accurately reflect
the sayings included in the book,
they will take your breath away with
their tenderness and charm. You'll
want to jump into them, embrace
them, close your eyes and remember
them. What an astonishingly talent-
ed artist.
The adages included are also inspi-
rational in the true sense of the word
(don't confuse this with some hap-
hazard collection of "meaningful say-
ings" that make most thinking peo-
ple cringe). Consider these:
• A child's wisdom is also wisdom.
• The way you cradle and rock
your children, that's how they'll
grow.
• A child's tears reach the heavens.
• Though parents have a dozen
children, each is the only one.
A lovely, lovely book. ❑
