When Your Jewish Child Asks Why: Answers for Tough Questions Paperback – January 1, 1993 by Kerry M. Olitzky (Author), Steven M. Rosman (Author), David P. Kasakove 

 

From Library Journal

If God exists, why is there evil in the world? Did biblical miracles really happen? Why do people have to die? Why do we have Jewish rituals? Why do some people hate Jews? This is a self-help book designed for concerned Jewish parents whose kids (five to nine) begin asking embarrassing or difficult questions regarding God, religion, Judaism in particular, and their Jewish identity. These 40 or so questions are answered by prominent Jewish educators, professors, and rabbis. A useful, helpful book with one major caveat: most of the contents express the theological and philosophical viewpoints of the liberal Reform and Reconstructionist wings of American Judaism. Many Conservative and Orthodox Jews would not find the insights offered here congenial with their orientation. For large Judaica collections and Reform synagogue libraries.
