Tower of Babel
In this colorfully illustrated bilingual (Hebrew and English) adaptation of The Tower of Babel from the book of Genesis, Alison Greengard attracts the attention of the young reader though the use of simple language. The pictures appearing on each page provided by Carol Racklin-Siegel explain the story in such a way that the youngest reader can follow. The inclusion of a Hebrew glossary at the end of the book enables the book to be used both as a pleasure book and as a beginning Hebrew reader. This book is a welcome addition to any children's library, particularly where Hebrew is being studied. Grades K-3. --Sara Marcus, University of Missourri, AJL Newsletter May/June 2003
