Description

Each chapter in this book describes the life of an extraordinary woman whose story, religious beliefs, practices and social background make her an amazing role model. What the women have in common is that each of them admirably exemplifies Jewish values, encouraging readers to emulate the lifestyle choices of them all. It was not easy to limit the selection to only a select few from the tremendous number of unusual women who contributed their special qualities in so many ways throughout Jewish history. We hope that as you read about each woman, you will understand why each one was chosen to tell her story. At the end of each biography there is a section with thought-provoking questions, project ideas, and additional resources, including books and websites, for further learning and research about these influential Jewish role models.
