One For The Books

One for the Books is an exciting collection of relatable stories about real people and their challenges. A veritable treasure chest of Hashem’s kindnesses and breathtaking hashgachah pratis, these narratives will engage readers and provide chizuk and inspiration.

A simple act of chessed to a young person in need accomplishes the unimaginable…

“The stories in this book demonstrate tangible hashgachah pratis and chessed in a captivating manner. One who reads these stories can then reflect on his or her own life, thinking about all the times that they, too, had such experiences, and thereby strengthen their belief in Hakadosh Baruch Hu’s precise running of the world.”

—Rabbi Dovid Kaplan

“I found the stories interesting, entertaining, inspiring, and successful in conveying the message they were intended to convey. I found the content in the spirit of true Torah ideals.”
