Stories help us make sense of the world, give us hope when we feel down, give us wonder and excitement when our lives seem ordinary, and help us find fairness in a world that sometimes seems unfair. The ten stories in this book are timeless and each one is followed by a Parent and Teacher EQ Guide to help children explore their inner thoughts and feelings. The guide includes questions and comments to provide insights about the meaning of the story and raises relevant psychological issues, help children think about how the story applies to their lives and sharpen their emotional intelligence, and describes activities children can do so the themes of the story are not only heard but also experienced.

With skillfully evocative descriptions, Devora Omer recounts the suffering of David and Rachel and the awful events that lead from the battlefields of Poland, across Russia's frozen wastes and primeval Siberian forests, enduring conditions of forced labour, hunger, disease and mortal danger until they reach - Teheran. David and Rachel are the two young Jews who separately endure their anguish until they meet and fall in love in Teheran, where he is the director of the Teheran Children's Refugee Station and she is a counsellor at the Jewish orphanage established to receive destitute refugee children arriving in Persia. This is the story of the perilous sea journey to Palestine, the haven and homeland they longed for.

The Teheran Operation: The Rescue of Jewish Children from the Nazis: based on the biographical sketches of David and Rachel Laor
