On December 12, 2022, I was honoured to be included in the AJL’s (Association of Jewish Libraries) KidLit Authors Showcase, where I talked about She’s a Mensch! : Ten Amazing Jewish Women. It was wonderful to see how connections were made between books and people. Thank you to all the organizers and participants for a fascinating look into new Jewish children’s books, and for the authors’ grace, passion, and support.
