About the Book

Inside the Rain Barrel is the true story of a young man's extraordinary courage and commitment. He risks his life to save his family's prayer book from being destroyed during the Holocaust. The book represents the continuity and legacy of a Polish Jewish family. An 11-year old girl learns from her grandfather about family Jewish traditions that have continued on for a very long time, first in Europe and now in the United States.
With a warm and bright approach, the book weaves historic information - from the comfort of life in the shtetl to the danger of World War II - around a conversation between Grandpa Bob and Natalie, his granddaughter. Natalie learns that the tattered prayer book he shows her once belonged to her great-great-great-grandmother, Blumah Gelah. The book was hidden in a rain barrel to protect it from the Nazis. Natalie realizes that the book is a treasure to guard and to cherish.
Inside the Rain Barrel is a celebration of life, family and tradition. The story gives young readers much information and asks them questions about how they would act in certain situations. The story also makes suggestions to encourage and help readers to start a search about their own family members from the past, and to find precious objects that may be passed along from generation to generation.
Much of the Inside the Rain Barrel story plays out in very difficult times and places. The authors, both experienced educators, have taken great care to write sensitively in a manner that will inform but not frighten young readers. Inside the Rain Barrel is fully illustrated with color and black and white photographs. Some photos are more than 100 years old. A glossary has beenprovided to help readers understand the Hebrew and Yiddish words which appear in the text.
