Authors and Illustrators on the Web (N-T) We have made an effort to include only sites that are generated by the author/illustrator him or herself or in some cases by an individual fan of the author/illustrator's work. If you wish to search for all sites about a particular author or illustrator, including publisher sites, we suggest you utilize Google or AltaVista for your search. In addition you may wish to explore the general children's and young adult literature sites listed at the bottom of this page. The author links are now divided into four sections because of the size of the files. So click on the first letter of the author/illustrator's last name and you should be taken to the proper page.

SHELDON OBERMAN AWARD Presented by Manitoba Association of Teachers of English (MATE) Sheldon Oberman was an English and drama teacher for almost 30 years in Winnipeg. His love of English translated into a prestigious career as an author. He published 12 books, including: the award winning " Always Prayer Shawl The Shaman's Nephew " (short-listed for the Governor-General's Award) and, most recently, " The Island of the Minotaur ". A two-volume collection of Jewish folk tales will be published posthumously. His talents also extended to the stage and film. He toured North America as a professional storyteller. He wrote columns and freelance articles for the Winnipeg Free Press and published children's songs, stories and poems in a number of magazines, journals and anthologies. Sheldon was the keynote speaker at the 2003 MATE SAG and will be sorely missed by teachers, readers and students alike. The Manitoba Association of Teachers of English is honouring Sheldon Oberman's memory by establishing an award given to deserving candidates at the annual MATE SAG Conference.

High Holy Days home Rosh Hashanah Yom Kippur Sukkot ... Commentary on Psalm 27 Jewish Books for Children for the Autumn Holy Days (Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, and Simchat Torah) ROSH HASHANAH (The New Year) Cohen, Barbara, Even Higher A retelling of the Peretz tale about true righteousness and holiness in preparation for the High Holy Days. This is a beautiful book; it should be in every home! Fisher, Leonard Everett, The Seven Days of Creation . New York: Holiday House, 1981 Simple retelling of Creation story with wonderful painted illustrations. Only problem may be the intertwining of Ch. 1 and Ch. 2 of Genesis. (Rosh Hashanah is the anniversary of the creation of the world.) Goldin, Barbara Diamond, The World's Birthday A young boy plans a birthday party for the world to celebrate Rosh Hashanah. (age 4+) Kimmel, Eric, Gershon's Monster: A Story for the Jewish New Year . Scholastic Press, 2000. Kimmel weaves the ideas of Tashlich into a legend about the Baal Shem Tov and a man who does not take responsibility for his misdeeds by doing teshuvah. The compilation of his wrongdoings ultimately threaten his children's lives and it is only through genuine teshuvah that he can correct the situation. The book is beautifully illustrated with Jon Muth's watercolors. The images might frighten some small children. There are a few things you should know about this book and consider when reading it to children: (1) whether or not children are born is presented as God's decision; (2) the notion of wonder-working rabbis is upheld; (3) the father's sins directly threaten his children's lives, but not his own; (4) the motif of tashlich is presented more as a shedding of responsibility than an unburdening after the completion of teshuvah.
