About My Library
Lots of children's picture books and Judaica. Books included comprise a virtual library---books I own and books I have read and books I want to read. Adding them to this site is a work in progress.
Book covers are not always 100% accurate, but if they aren't close, they're not used.
About Me
I like to find themes in and connections among stories, especially those found in folklore, Midrash, children's picture books, and Buffy, the Vampire Slayer.
