came out in the fifties.

Its about this large family being raised Jewish on the east side in the
1910's. They go into all the holidays and traditions of the Jewish faith. I just loved
these books and couldnt seem to find them in the library Well, I found them sat.
in a box of old stuff and my dd and I started reading them last night;.

Living in NYC during that time period especially. I think NYC still affords a "mixed" experience in a lot of ways. DS lives there, in Brooklyn right now and works in Manhattan.

He is young, twenties.

I wonder what he will say about NYC when he is my age.
