[ha-Safran] Better World
I wrote directly but will post my response. I am familiar with them and they seem both nice and honest. They are legit. I found them since the local public library has a bin outside and we were wrestling with what to do with discards. They seem nice enough and donate books to Africa as well as places that need them (they donated to places affected by Hurricane Katrina for example). They do take a profit; it was started by two Notre Dame students as a way to both get rid of text books and make some extra change while in college. I think if you can fill out 6 book cartons (which they will send you), they will either pick up and/or ship the books at their expense. Depending on how many boxes you fill -you get a small profit from the sales of your books (you have to fill up a certain amount to profit). They sell books on Amazon, Half. com, etc. and they give a certain percentage of their profits to charity. most of those charities are Christian (Catholic) oriented since they are from Notre Dame. If they can't use the books, they discard them to land fills or recycle them etc (or at least told me that they tried to). When I first heard of them, I contacted a friend who lives in South Bend (Indiana) and works at the library at Notre Dame. She hesitated and told me to be cautious a bit (because I think it does not always work as smoothly as advertised) -but then added that her local book club run by the JCC (or Federation) relies on them for most of the Jewish books that she reads. Which sounded positive to me. -- Ellen Cohn, Ed.D.

[ha-Safran] Peretz etrog story?
does anyone know how to find the story about the boy who is afraid that the etrog will lose its pitom? I always thought that it was Peretz, but I could not find it last year so maybe not. If not, who is it? I know that there is a child version that has been adapted. But does anyone know where I can find the original (or an English version?)
