Teddy Teabury's Fabulous Fact

Yearling

The author-illustrator team who created Too Many Frogs! (2004) continues the fun in a picture book celebrating the excitement of a birthday party and confronting the letdown when it's over. As Froggie rushes through the forest to join Grandpa's birthday celebration, little listeners will imitate his actions and join in his deliciously nonsensical song: "Bah-Rummm-Tah-Rummmm, / Bah-Rummm-Tahtah-Tummmm." Froggie makes a costume, builds a stage, scribbles programs, and performs Grandpa's favorite song as a present, all to wild applause. Of course, when everything is over, Froggie doesn't want to say good-bye. The energetic, neon-colored acrylic, ink, and colored-pencil illustrations perfectly depict the wild celebration. Children will enjoy the uproar even as they recognize the anticlimax and the coziness of being alone with happy memories at bedtime. Hazel Rochman

With All My Heart, With All My Mind: Thirteen Stories About Growing Up Jewish

Simon Pulse

What does growing up Jewish mean? How can young people reconcile centuries of tradition with the modern world? Can they embrace their religion with all my heart, with all my mind ? Asher posed these &amp; other questions to 13 Jewish writers: herself, Eve Feldman, Merrill Gerber, Jacqueline Greene, Johanna Hurwitz, Eric Kimmel, Sonia Levitin, Carol Matas, Gloria Miklowitz, Susan Pfeffer, Ruth Sender, Phyllis Shalant, &amp; Jane Zalben. From the last days of Masada to the future colonization of the moon, these stories provide unique &amp; personal insights. In the interviews following each story, the authors discuss their own experiences growing up Jewish. These are stories that will make you laugh, cry, think, &amp; help you to explore what it means to be a Jew. Juv.

Legend has it that when Earth was created and the time came to fill it with people, two angels were chosen to deposit wise and foolish souls evenly over the land.  However, one angel tripped on a mountain peak and the entire sack of foolish souls emptied out over one spot, a tiny town in Poland called Chelm.  Tales of the eternally good-natured but misguided Wise Men of Chelm date back to the 1500s.  This script, set in the late 19th century, weaves together several favorites from Jewish folklore, and sparkles with opportunities for traditional folk dance and humor.  But, you don't have to be Jewish to put your conclusions before your facts, pin your dreams on a feather, or recognize yourself and everyone you know in the antics of The Wise Men of Chelm!
