Talmudic and midrashic folklore use the teachings of the ancient sages to answer questions and teach moral lessons, often with a dash of humor. In this delightful collection, Phillis Gershator takes spiritual and folkloric elements and weaves them together with her unique humor to create a special version of the wondrous tales that have captivated readers for centuries. Stories of flying rabbis, miraculous loaves of bread, wise women, muscle-bound angels, and goats that carry bears on their heads will enchant children of all ages and those who read to them.
