A Holiday Tale
Amalia Hoffman’s dreamlike illustrations bring to life her story of Kleineh Adella and Groyseh Adella, two troublemaking young maids who can’t resist the aromas of freshly baked Purim pastries.
Set in the shtetl of Stanislavka, “Purim Goodies,” (Gefen Publishing House), is peppered with Yiddish words and humor, and includes a glossary and a hamantaschen recipe. The new book, which is available for $12.95 on www.amazon.com and at Barnes & Noble and Jewish bookstores, is based on a story by Sholom Aleichem.

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
