Description for The City of Light (MomentBooks)
Review 'If in the past I have ever called a book beautiful, I realize after reading City of Lights that I may have been too profligate with my praise. This work for children may be the realization of that often overused word; it is a very moving story, an excellent way to introduce youngsters to the Holocaust'- The Jerusalem Post'An especially important episode in (Theo Bikel's) remarkable life story is now retold by his widow, Aimee Ginsburg Bikel, in 'Theodore Bikel's The City of Light'....the story has been transformed into an illustrated children's book...full of both pleasures and challenges that will last all year long. Ginsburg Bikel and (illustrator Noah) Phillips have risen to an extraordinarily difficult task by foreshadowing the events of the Holocaust without confronting her young readers with its atrocities. Indeed, 'Theodore Bikel's The City of Light' is a book that can be used to open a conversation about events in Jewish history that will be revealed in full only when the child is much older.'�-- Jonathan Kirsch, The Jewish JournalA wonderful and inspiring story for readers ages 9 and up, THEODORE BIKEL'S 'THE CITY OF LIGHT' will make a great gift this holiday season. -- Broadway World'The book is perfectly complemented by Noah Phillips' illustrations that illuminate the story.�Try it, you don't have to be Jewish to like it!' - Norm Goldman, Book PleasuresAimee Ginsburg Bike writes like an angel, her voice is clear, moving and illuminating. The combination of her voice with the larger than life story of Theo Bikel's childhood makes for a remarkable, deceptively simple story that will definitely become a classic. This book belongs on the shelf of every Jewish (and non Jewish) home and in every school library, museum, and school. I cannot recommend this book more. --- Anna Gibson, NFGI liked the way that Aimee tied the story together so well was amazing, and afterwards, I wanted to get the book, because I wanted to learn more about Theo Bikel.�-R.D, Portland Jewish Academy, grade 6 Read more Review Aimee Ginsberg Bikel�s shaping and sharing of her beloved late husband�s, Theo Bikel�s tale of what he experienced as a little boy during the rise, and then explosion, of hatred that preceded the Holocaust, is a beautiful, painfully powerful and great gift, particularly meaningful in this time of mushrooming anti-Semitism, hatred and bigotry of every sort, worldwide. Told in the sweet poetic language of a child, and a one-day-to-become iconic actor, poet, folk singer and international activist for social justice, it is an a riveting and undeniable tale, made all the more meaningful by the mounting denial of this history that we must tell and retell, lest it be repeated.
