Packed with colorful illustrations and whimsical verses, this lighthearted, factual, and entertaining presentation of the country and people of Israel is the perfect book for travelers of all faiths to explore. Through the lens of history, culture, landmarks and values, Israel and its most memorable people and events are thoughtfully regarded with humor and affection.
For the Love of Israel: The Holy Land from Past to Present—A Primer for Tayarim, Talmindim, Vatikim, Noodnikim, and Dreamers by Rabbi Steven Stark Lowenstein with illustrations by Mark Anderson, offers over 26 reasons to love Israel. From Aliyah to Megidoo, Netanyahoo to Zionism, this powerfully illustrated A to Z journey through Israel explores the heart, the soul, and the foundation of the Jewish people—the homeland from where their ancient traditions, culture, and values have come. Each letter of the alphabet is the basis for a short rhyme and is accompanied by a detailed, four-color illustration.
Some of notable people, cultural and religious subjects featured in For the Love of Israel include:
- Natalie Portman
- Falafel
- Steven Spielberg
- Ilan Ramon
- Elie Wiesel
- Jerusalem
- Birthright
- Theodor Herzl
Although For the Love of Israel does not hesitate to address several serious, tragic events in the nation’s history, the solemnity of these pages is deftly and respectfully balanced with delightful illustrations and engaging rhymes.
