Girls on Adventures, Dogs on Strike: Why Yiddish Children’s Literature Matters Today
Hosted By: Yiddish Book Center (Amherst, MA)
This course explores the rich world of Yiddish children’s literature, featuring characters who challenge expectations and stories that blend humor, politics, and cultural imagination. Spanning nearly a thousand books published across four continents in the 20th century, these works offered young readers a symbolic world of dignity, joy, and belonging that helped shape modern Jewish identity.
