The Time of Our Lives

Based on The Tapestry of Jewish Time by Rabbi Nina Beth Cardin, The Time of Our Lives is an unforgettable journey through the four major Jewish life cycle events: birth, Bar and Bat Mitzvah, marriage, and death and mourning. While exploring how Jewish life cycle events help us mark and celebrate the milestones in our lives, young teens will also consider how they can contribute to the modern evolution and enrichment of these celebrations.

Through teen-friendly narrative, thought-provoking questions, and a dynamic, colorful design, The Time of Our Lives serves as a guidebook to the major milestones along the paths of the Jewish life cycle. Includes historical vignettes, excerpts from sacred texts, real-life peer stories, interactive classroom experiences, and a variety of special features designed to engage the creativity and curiosity of readers.
