    Insightful, Smart, Comforting and Wise, Oh So Very, Wise!
  

*by A***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 25, 2020*

While neither Jewish, nor even Christian I found this book to be incredibly wise. The author lays out 18 different prayers that help guide parents on the path of creating deep and lasting values for their families and their children. She brings us into her own home and shows how she teaches her own children values such as gratitude, responsibility, respect, trust, etc. While some would assume the author, who is a rabbi, might be sanctimonious, nothing could be further from the truth!! She teaches with a humility and humble spirit that made me feel as if she were saying to me: "It's gonna be ok -- this parenting business is hard! I make mistakes, too, but hold my hand and we'll go on this journey together."One of my favorite chapters was the one about Family (Amidah). In it she talks about how she helps keep the memory of her ancestors alive through making certain foods and talking about their lives, and then she shared a poignant story of watch that was given to her oldest child by a distant relative. She writes, "Linking our children to their past provides them with roots, roots that help ground them in the uncertainty of life. Knowing that there were those who came before, who had similar challenges, dreams, and thoughts, provides a sense of comfort and security. Things may be very different for our children than they were for children decades ago, but family and its importance is something that will never grow old."I highly recommend this book to all parents. I've already decided that this book will now be my go-to gift for every upcoming baby shower!

    Beautiful new take on old sacred text
  

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 10, 2021*

This book has been very helpful for raising two teens. The author uses a parent’s lens to reinterpret sacred Jewish prayers and glean positive parenting skills. She shares these concepts with an easy to follow layout, asks thoughtful questions to ponder, and gives her own real life (and not always pretty) experiences. I wish this book was available when my children were younger!

    Ideal for Parents and Caregivers, the Parenting Book for All Time
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 31, 2020*

Parents, family members and caregiving professionals looking for a thoughtful guide to raising children will benefit from Rabbi Amy Grossblatt Pesah’s Parenting on a Prayer- Ancient Jewish Secrets for Raising Modern Children. The book is well-written from the perspective of a teacher of Torah and a Jewish mother. Pessah artistically weaves her parenting journal reflections with Torah scripture and words from Jewish sages. Ideal for the professional or the parent of young children, the chapters are short enough to read before one goes to bed. Reading Pessah’s Parenting on a Prayer will make the reader become more mindful and reflective about caring for children, helping one intuitively think things through during challenging times with children at every stage of development.
