Though my early childhood language was Yiddish, I have retained enough of that 'mameloshen' to thoroughly appreciate this collection of wonder tales and 'muser haskl' (moral messages) gathered from every corner of Eastern Europe and beyond. Stories that made me laugh or cry, pause for thought and want to tell them to whoever would listen.
Beatrice Weinreich has made a treasure of a book that should live on the bookshelf of everyone who loves stories.
