By Danny Siegel

Book Overview

A mitzvah is a commandment, but the word has become a synonym for those sublime kind deeds that people do for others. In simple poetic and often humorous prose, Dany Siegel presents a dozen Mitzvah people who are helping to repair the world, whether from collecting pennies to rescuing birds..from picking potatoes to lending wedding gowns. Each story concludes with ways all of us , young and old, can begin to do mitzvahs.

Customer Reviews

my kids love it!

"Mitzva" is Hebrew and Yiddish slang for "Good Deed", and this book gives lots of ways that you can learn about and do Good Deeds.Don't be put off by the name (if you don't understand it) - but it is most descriptive. And like all of Danny Siegel's books, this one is great reading.
