Feisty, quick witted, and strong-minded heroines take center stage in Lost and Found, a collection of short stories for preteens, that whisks the reader on a magic carpet ride through Jewish history.
Richly evocative watercolor illustrations by highly regarded illustrator Bryna Waldman heighten the sense of wonder in each story. In Lost and Found, Waldman's paintings draw the reader deeper into the stories by adding charming details that bring the characters' everyday settings to life.
As in most Jewish stories for children, there are morals to be gleaned from each story. Will good deeds be rewarded? Can the true of heart live in the real world? Can the wealth of Torah study be measured in gleaming currency? The fun of Lost and Found is that the lessons spell themselves out without being overbearing.
