<p>"Hirsh was a TROGER. A TROGER carries things for a living. Sometimes Hirsh carried sacks of food. Sometimes live chickens. Sometimes boxes of books... Nobody in Braude could guess that Hirsh was a very special person. Until, one day, a holy man, a TZADIK, came to town... 'Why, there is a light shining from him!' exclaimed the tzadik. 'Light?' the woman turned to look at the troger. 'I don't see any light'" What was Hirsh's secret? Why was a simple working man in a small Ukrainian shteti glowing with a light that no one but the tzadik could see? The answer proves to be incredible. HIRSH'S SECRET by Sterna Citron retells a Chassidic folktale with wit & poignancy. It brings to life characters at once ordinary & extraordinary. And it conveys a message of goodness without preaching. The illustrations done in lively watercolor by Russian artist Igor Eydel, capture the warmth of the characters & the beauty of the Eastern European landscape. This book is a joy to read & to behold. It is suited for children from four to eight, although older children & adults will without a doubt enjoy both the story & the illustrations. HIRSH'S SECRET, published by Kerem Publishing of Los Angeles, can be ordered from Kerem Publishing, 723 N. Orange Dr., Los Angeles, CA 90038. Other books by the author from the Kerem Children's Series include, ZUSHE'S FIND & THE SHEPHERD BOY WHO LOVED G-D.
