Tales From The Gemara :Taanis

An exciting new series of books that has already earned immense popularity in Hebrew is now becoming available for readers of every age in English. Tales from the Gemara is a selection of stories and Aggadic material from the Talmud, retold and dramatized especially for young readers. Just as our grand-fathers listened raptly while their rabbis expounded on Ein Yaakov (the traditional anthology of the Talmud's Aggadah), so our children will marvel at the beauty of this new series of books. These tales are filled with Yiras Shamayim and middos tovos, lessons of piety and ethical be-havior. They will introduce read-ers to tractates and areas of the Gemara that are not included in regular yeshiva and day school programs. They will provide hours upon hours of enjoyable reading and lasting inspiration. Read Tales from the Gemara - and walk the streets of Pumbe-disa and Neharda'a with the great names of our sacred past.
