Expand your English. This Yiddish "Who's Who" is a guide and coloring book of personality types. Something funny happened on the way to the world we live in today. That funny thing was the hilarious belly laugh Borscht-Belt comedy of immigrant Jews. And Yiddish was a critical and funny part of that world. Generations of Jewish immigrants came to our English-speaking world with Yiddish, a secret language which only they spoke, and it carried their culture. Yaakov Kirschen, famous Jewish cartoonist and comedian has written and drawn this treasure of our people. It makes a great gift for a younger generation that came along after that golden age of Yiddish comedy and is a heart-warming gift for those of us who can still remember those days. And even if you’re not into coloring, this cartoon “guide” is super fun. Cartoonist Kirschen is an old guy. Mr. Shuldig, the bald hero of his Dry Bones cartoons is also an old guy. Now, after more than four decades of writing and drawing his daily Israeli/American political cartoon, Kirschen has decided to tackle something REALLY important; passing on the essence of Yiddish culture and comedy to a younger English-speaking generation and warming the hearts of other old folks who still pepper their speech with Yiddish-isms. His new project is a series called "Grandpa’s Jewish Cartoon Coloring Books". Those early Yiddish-speaking immigrants expressed themselves with wickedly funny Yiddish sarcasm that dripped with cynicism. Kirschen's book is a funny English-language cartoon guide and coloring book of those Yiddish names which will help you express your Jewish heritage.

The Dry Bones cartoons in this coffee Table Book were published over the last forty years. Some are funny, many are angry, each fights back against anti-Zionism, against the denial of Israelite history, or against the ignoring of the genocide of non-Muslims across North Africa and the Middle East. If you are a Zionist Jew or a Righteous Gentile, this book will bring you comfort, and a few laughs.

This 108 page book tells the story of our planet, mankind, and Israel from the viewpoint of the trees of the Holy Land. They sing their tale of history from the Garden of Eden to the "beating of swords into plowshares" End Times prophecies. A treat for youngsters and a joy for adults. The poignant and inspirational song of the trees is told in a series of 49 lovely one-sided pages to color. Reading and coloring the pages of this book will bring you peace and serenity.
