Want to become a fantastic parent or highly effective educator? Go to the experts ... our forefathers, the great men and women of Tanach, and the Sages of the Talmud.

Want to raise caring, responsible, and successful children and students? Use the best book available ... the Torah!


Rabbi Meyer Yedid is a renowned educator, sought-after speaker, Rav of Brooklyn’s large and thriving Congregation Shaare Zion, and author of the popular work The Power of Tranquility.

In The Power of Chinuch Rabbi Yedid combines his vast knowledge of Torah with his profound understanding of children - and the adults tasked to raise them (that’s us!). His guidance is warm, practical, and firmly sourced in the Torah’s eternal wisdom.

Yes, we all know that we have to show children that we love them -- but do we truly understand how to get the message of unconditional love across to them? Yes, we realize that teenagers are, to put it kindly, a little confused -- but wouldn’t it be valuable to learn how to enter their thoughts and feelings? Of course we know that we don’t “own” our children -- but do we sometimes act as if we do?

Want to be proud of your children - and proud of yourself as a parent or teacher? Discover... The Power of Chinuch!

Unmatched

With her sometimes funny, always intimate, uncensored memoir, Sarah Lavane puts a human face on the challenges of being "unmatched" in a "matched" Orthodox Jewish world. She takes us along on her journey. We learn how her background shaped her relationships and perceptions of God from a young age. She then delves into the ups and downs of dating, the tug-of-war she feels between men she may date and those who are off-limits, her heartfelt attempts (conventional and not) to change her fate and her poignant struggles with God through it all. Thoughtful and humorous, this page-turner draws the reader in.
Unmatched aims to bring solace and comfort to the "unmatched" as well as foster sensitivity and awareness to the "matched." This memoir is a must-read for the currently "unmatched," anyone who's ever wondered, "Why isn't so-and-so married?" and readers who enjoy memoirs that give insight into the human condition.

Managing decisions can be a significant source of stress, worry, and regret. In What Do You Really Want? Shayna Goldberg argues that deep self-awareness and an attitude of trust are the best tools for making strong decisions that we can feel confident about.

Whether you are standing on the brink of a major decision, reflecting on those you have already made, or holding someone else's hand as they face a daunting choice - this book will help illuminate the path toward better understanding, deeper self-awareness, and stronger decisions Using true-to-life, relatable, and relevant scenarios drawn from real life questions posed to her by students, friends, and family, Goldberg uses Jewish sources and teachings in order to develop the philosophical underpinnings of these concepts. Furthermore, What Do You Really Want? lays out an invigorating vision for trust-based education that will captivate parents, teachers, community leaders, and everyone else besides.

How would you like to be unable to speak intelligibly? How would you enjoy having an awkward gait that makes you prone to falling and causes people to stare as you shuffle by? Living with dystonia is not something I would have chosen for myself. To tell the truth, what I really long for is normalcy. Better yet, I'd like to go away somewhere and not take myself with me! Wherever I go, people are always telling me that I am an inspiration. This makes me feel like a total fraud, because to my mind I'm just doing what I have to do to drag myself out of bed every morning and face another day of humiliation and challenges.

But then again, I could have made the choice to just stay in bed and pull the covers over my head and never get up, so I suppose the fact that I do get up day after day could be seen as a source of inspiration. Honestly, being put on an inspiration pedestal can be somewhat isolating. But if others are inspired by me, I consider it an honor. I do hope that this book heartens all those who have been tested by God through a disability. I fervently believe that, with faith, courage, and fortitude, you can live a fulfilling life full of happiness, blessings, and contentment.

This is how it can be done.

this book includes 16 pages of photographs of the author's life.
