Oy Such a Delight!:
Charming!. I bought extra gently used books to send to people who in turn bought this book to send to people. So funny you are calling people to read them the jokes!. But not only is the book filled with fun, but the book is also very informative. While you are reading it you will think of so many people that also will enjoy it. Great gift, but I had a difficult time getting more than one book at a time from vendors, so good luck! You will really enjoy if you are lucky enough to still get one!
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.

Warm. Funny. Sometimes hysterical. Fascinating. Moving. Caring. For anyone who wants to know or feel a little Jewish , this is the perfect book.
