Hunor:
There are only two types of humor in the world. Irish and Jewish. You can't go wrong by buying a book of either one. This book is typical Jewish humor and very, very funny. Enjoyed it immensely.
A JEWEL BOX OF JOY:
I received A little Joy, A Little Oy as a Hanukkah gift this year and love it! It's chock-full of the most unusual, entertaining, funny and heartwarming pieces. So many Jewish books are either all jokes -- or a heavy read.
The balance of this book is astounding. A terrific read.
I highly recommend it.

What a surprising Joy!:
Warm. Funny. Sometimes hysterical. Fascinating. Moving. Caring. For anyone who wants to know or feel a little Jewish , this is the perfect book.
Fat, full, familiar, funny.
I bought one for each family group in my "clan."
