Re: [ha-Safran] Looking for books for HS students- both literary and kosher
I subscribe to some emails from Torah.org and just received one that has this in one of them was this message, This is a plug for the fantasy novel my son published a year ago, The Ring of Fate. It is an exciting, can't put down read, and has received very positive feedback since its publication. It is also completely kosher in both subject matter and language. It is available as both paperback and ebook. It is sold by Booklocker.com (http://booklocker.com/books/6519.html), as well as by Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/The-Ring-Fate-Zvi-Rosenfeld/dp/1621418561/) and all the major on-line sellers.

[ha-Safran] Genocide, Holocaust, and WWII
Hi everyone, This came out about 2-3 days ago and is already building some nice momentum. Pennsylvania is going to vote on Monday whether to include the Holocaust in school curriculum. In the meanwhile, 94 Maidens author, Rhonda Fink-Whitman put together this video in which she interviews PA public school graduates at different colleges to see what they know about genocide, the Holocaust, and WWII in general. It's pretty powerful so we thought it would pass it along. http://youtu.be/4V4bmm6yJMw Thanks, Becky Gihon River Press, Inc.
