I looked around the Web hoping to purchase a copy and couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that the book is going for hundreds and even thousands of dollars. Does anyone have any other good books to suggest on this mitzvah? Helen Chronister Librarian, Minnie Cobey Memorial Library Congregation Tifereth Israel Columbus, Ohio
