Tick Tac Moo (Click, Clack, Moo) by
Doreen Cronin, the story of cows who
form something like a union, then type
out their complaints on an old type-
writer; Amavon Va'ani (Bunny and Me)
by Adele Greespun, which tells of a tiny
girl and her pal bunny; and Ima, At
Ohevet Oti? (Mama, Do You Love Me?)
by Barbara Joosse, where a little girl is
reassured there are no bounds to her
mother's love.
Some books are strictly in Hebrew or
another foreign language, while others
include a companion English text.
Levine sells books in 20 different lan-
guages, and while none of her buyers
expects her to speak Italian or Urdu or
Bengali just because she sells books in
these languages, translating the tides can
sometimes be tricky.
Fortunately, Levine's husband,
Robert, is there to help out, especially
when it comes to Hebrew, French and
German.
He was also with his wife when she
visited an olive press in Israel — a visit
that would serve as the inspiration for
the name of Francine's business.
"Originally, I was going to call it
Olive Garden, but that was already
taken," she says. "I tried lots of names
with 'olive,' but they were already regis-
tered [as businesses]. I was stunned.
Finally, I remembered the olive press."
Because the Olive Press has been
open for more than 18 years, individu-
als and groups from around the state are
familiar with its vast collection of multi-
lingual books.
But not everyone.
"We still get calls," Levine says, "ask-
ing, 'Do you sell olive oil?'"

• Francine Levine is planning to host an
open house, complete with a Hebrew
story hour and books available for pur-
chase, in September as well as a book
fair before the High Holidays. For dates
and times, call the Olive Press.
