- Will we ever feel accepted by each others' families?

“webzine.” What you’d find:
- Honoring Your Extended Family: My husband and I would like our children to receive only
Hanukkah presents this year. How do we tell our in-laws without hurting their feelings?
Parenting Interfaith Kids: This doesn't seem fair. I agreed to raise the children
Jewish, but as the non-Jewish partner it seems as if I'm making all the compromises! How do others feel?
- The Jewish Communication Network has
an intermarriage forum. This is “... a growing page about interfaith marriage, specifically ... between Christians and Jews .. to provide
resources, links, information and a sense of hope and belonging to interfaith couples
browsing the web in search of these things.” They have discussions, a
“bookstore”, readings, and links. A good resource.

Rabbi Sandy Eisenberg Sasso, the first woman to be
ordained by the Reconstructionist movement, has addressed the lack of good
biblical stories for girls in "But
God Remembered"
-
Stories
of Women from Creation to the Promised Land" (31 pages, Jewish
Lights, $16.95, illustrated by Bethanne Andersen). Using the technique of
midrash, telling a new story to explain another, Sasso expands on four
biblical passages. Sasso develops full stories around barely-mentioned
female figures, providing details that bring the character to life.
Delicately colored illustrations that look like ancient wall paintings
enhance each story.
-
Author-illustrator Mark Podwal retells an ancient legend
in "Golem, a
Giant Made of Mud" (unpaginated, Greenwillow Books, $15). The
richly colored illustrations evoke the magical world of 16th-century Prague.
The text tells the story of Rabbi Judah Loew, who befriended the emperor and
was believed to have created a clay creature to protect the Jews.
- Award-winning author Joan Nathan has updated her delightful
1987 cookbook, "The
Children's Jewish Holiday Kitchen: 70 Ways to Have Fun with Your Kids and
Make Your Family's Celebrations Special" (157 pages, Schocken, $18,
illustrated by Brooke Scudder).
-
Fran Manushkin's "Starlight
and Candles: The Joys of the Sabbath" introduces younger readers to
Shabbat with a simple story that includes most of the customs associated
with the holiday. This book's highlight is Chwast's illustrations. Created
with cutout paper and watercolor but reminiscent of graphic art from the
'30s and '40s, they gently evoke Shabbat's special colors and moods.
