Book Reviews of Ten Good Rules: A Counting Book

Book Review: Ten Good Rules: A Counting Book
Summary: 5 Stars

All Jewish children should be taught the Ten Commandments, but their complex and mature wording makes them rather difficult to introduce to a younger audience. This book makes teaching the Ten Commandments to young children effortless and effective. The simple, carefully worded language and the bright and engaging color photographs capture the essence and concept of each "rule." In addition, certain commandments have been modified using positive language in lieu of negative language in order to make this book age- appropriate, and allow for easier comprehension. The exciting, full-color pictures in the typical Tod Cohen fashion draw the audience in. With the introduction of a new rule, the children in the photographs are shown demonstrating it. For example, for rule number 4, "celebrate Shabbat" the children are shown enthusiastically lighting wooden Shabbat candles, making Kiddush and HaMotzi. The choice of photos is appealing, and the children who are depicted represent a multicultural group that could be seen at any pre-school in the nation. Overall, Ten Good Rules is an exciting, simple, and effective way to introduce the Ten Commandments to young, pre-school age children, as it is perfect for use both at home and in the classroom. Ages 3-6.
