Tips for Selecting Your Next Book – December 2023
Each month, PJ Our Way offers a diverse assortment of books for our readers to choose from. At this moment in time many readers are looking to feel more connected to Israel, so this month we are delighted to offer two books with significant content related to Israel.
In Charlie Thorne and the Last Equation, much of Charlie’s search for Albert Einstein’s lost equation takes place in Jerusalem, including The Albert Einstein Archive at Hebrew University and the old city of Jerusalem.
In Not So Shy, Shai and her family have just moved to the United States from Israel, and Shai’s connection to the country of her birth is central the story.
You might also love the adventures of three young travelers and their dog in The Inquisitor’s Tale or the riddles, puzzles, and stories rooted in Jewish tradition in While Standing on One Foot.
Don’t forget to make your selection by December 10th!

Nevermind! I replaced the book for Mort Ziff is not dead! PJ Our way sometimes on the last day of choosing a book, which is today...replace one book, This time they replaced "While standing on one foot" For Mort Ziff is not dead :) So I decided that the Mort Ziff book would be more interesting to read :)
