Industry Reviews

Reading "The Mitzvah Gang" with my 7 year old daughter was a fun adventure, which led to a thought provoking discussion not only about the meaning of the Sukkot holiday, but also about the generous spirit of the kids who belong to the Mitzvah Gang! They are definitely an inspiring bunch of kids. Told in catchy rhymes, and illustrated with colorful, exciting pictures, your child will love reading this book with you. it is a heart-warming story. I would highly recommend this book!
G Dreyfuss

The story was very sweet and kind, and I like that the "Mitzvah gang" helped out in their own way, which is an important concept to introduce to the children - thinking outside the box, coming up with something creative.
