From the author:
In recent times antisemtitism has reached a very disturbing high. In an effort to combat this we should lay positive foundations early. My aim is to contribute to de-mystifying the Jewish people and promote love and not to hate amongst our children. We must teach them that we are all God's children despite our outward differences and we should love each other as He loves us.

It is my hope that in learning about, and celebrating our religious choices and outward differences especially regarding Judaism and the Jewish people, that it will increase our love and respect for each other and reduce antisemitism and xenophobia, not just amongst children, but amongst adults too.

If we all commit to this goal then we are one step nearer to a world without antisemtitism and Jew hatred.
