Dear Safranim, Everyone is looking for inspiration before the holidays, and what better place to find it than in a Chassidic tale? If you've added ebooks to your libraries, please consider adding my ebook Choose Life! 8 Chassidic Stories for the Jewish New Year. And I have some great news about my ebook 36 Candles: Chassidic Tales for Chanukah -- it's now available in paperback.
Here's some information about both books: Choose Life! 8 Chassidic Stories for the Jewish New Year Rebbe Zusha of Hanipoli was once walking down the street when he was asked by a Russian police officer, "Where are you going?" Where are you going? That's a good question for any day of the year, but it's especially pertinent during the Days of Awe - Rosh Hashanah, the Ten Days of Repentance, and Yom Kippur - which are days uniquely designed for taking an inner journey to discover the path to a fulfilling and meaningful life. In this short volume of eight classic Jewish tales, this spiritual journey is explored through the lens of Chassidus - the mystical religious movement founded by Rabbi Israel, the Baal Shem Tov. Along the way we'll meet great chassidic leaders such as Rebbe Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev, Rebbe Zusha of Hanipoli, and the Baal Shem Tov himself, who were all masters at showing the way to a New Year filled with good health, prosperity, happiness and, of course, life. Available as an ebook at Amazon.com , BarnesandNoble.com and other online venues. 36 Candles: Chassidic Tales for Chanukah Chanukah, the Festival of Lights, will be a whole new experience after reading these 36 stories - one for each Chanukah candle - from the Chassidic tradition. Join the Baal Shem Tov, Rabbi Zusya of Hanipoli, Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev, the Chozeh of Lublin, and many others as they share their timeless wisdom for how to stay happy and optimistic during even the darkest times. Available as both an ebook and trade paperback at Amazon.com and other online venues. For more information, please see my website or contact me at [email protected] . And early best wishes to you and your family for a good and sweet New Year! Libi Astaire www.libiastaire.weebly.com
