Growing up Jewish.

This delightful book invites those who read it to begin a magnificent adventure into Jewish freedom and responsibility. Dr. Hoffman opens the door for the youthful Bar/Bat Mitzvah (son or daughter of The Covenant) to enter the sacred world of a loving, rich, meaningful, and creative Jewish life. Hoffman challenges the reader to thoughtful introspection and examination of Jewish heart, soul, and identity. This is not a book for those who need to be spoon fed information. Hoffman's book is a guide for those who are willing to wrestle with angels for the prize of wisdom, knowledge and understanding. If you want to give a gift that will help The Jewish Spirit to flourish, this is it. This book will be treasured and loved as the years pass by. Its true worth will not be fully known until My Bar/Bat Mitzvah is re-read many years from now as the book is examined by generations of Jewish children yet to be born. This is the perfect Bar/Bat Mitzvah gift. Giving the gift of Jewish Soul is a very wise choice indeed.
