| 4. |  | Jewish Living: A Guide to Contemporary Reform Practice from Urj Press Price: $9.99 Customer Review:  To be honest, I have only just begun to read this book. On first glance at the table of context you see that Washofsky intends to fit as much as possible into one volume, which was the reason for my purchase.

| 8. |  | Shabbat, 2nd Edition: The Family Guide to Preparing for and Welcoming the Sabbath (The Art of Jewish Living Series) from Jewish Lights Publishing Price: $12.87 Customer Review: I bought this book because of the author's approach of putting all prayers on their own page: each prayer or song is printed in the original Hebrew and transliteration version, and also has the English translation.

| 16. | [no image] | The Passover Seder: The Art of Jewish Living from Jewish Lights Publishing Price: $4.87 Customer Review: After the first 40 pages or so, I was ready to return this book to the library: it began with lots of what struck me as dumbed-down, icky-poo cuteness: a bunch of people telling the sort of family stories about grandma's matzoh balls that make Judaism seem like ancestor worship. And even the more... |

| 17. |  | Living Jewish: Values, Practices and Traditions from Mesorah Publications, Limited Price: $29.99 Customer Review: Rabbi Wein is one of the great teachers of Torah Judaism in the modern world. He is in a sense a person close to the Derech Eretz idea of Rabbi Hirsch in that he has an understanding of the ' learning' of the world.

| 24. |  | The Essential Pele Yoetz: An Encyclopedia of Ethical Jewish Living from Intellectbooks Price: $27.76 Customer Review:  An alphabetical listing of admirable traits and how to implement them. Interestingly it does contain the title pages of the original from 1824 et al. If I was to offer some criticism it would be that it is incomplete and lacks the dual language to help those less versed in the original Hebrew. |
