Description

What Jewish Looks Like is a groundbreaking anthology that redefines Jewish identity by celebrating 36 remarkable Jewish individuals, past and present, whose lives reflect the vast diversity of Jewish experience. Packed with short, illustrated biographies, this middle-grade book includes activists, Paralympians, rabbis, artists, chefs, and dreamers from many races, genders, and cultures. With inclusive narratives, accessible primers on Jewish history, a map, and illustrative sidebars, it invites readers to see that there are more than fifteen million ways to be Jewish.

Too many Jews have been told: "You don't look Jewish!" It begs the question, "What does Jewish look like?" Well, there are over fifteen million Jews in the world, which means there are more than fifteen million ways to look and be Jewish. It can look like setting out menorahs on tribal land, adding kimchi to the seder plate, organizing for change, and living out loud.

  • Compiled by Liz Kleinrock and Caroline Kusin Pritchard, illustrated by Iris Gottlieb
  • 128 pages
  • Dimensions: 10.5" x 8.4" x 0.45"

What began as J & J Harper became Harper & Brothers in 1833 and, after a 1989 merger with Scotland's William Collins, HarperCollins. Today it is a News Corp company with headquarters in New York and London, and one of the "Big Five" English-language publishers. Its children's list is legendary: under editor Ursula Nordstrom, the house published Goodnight Moon, Where the Wild Things Are and Charlotte's Web.

ModernTribe's picks are for young readers: Happy Hanukkah, Curious George, a tabbed board book, and The Mysterious Missing Matzoh, a funny Passover story about a grandpa who hides the afikomen a little too well.
