The following books are some suggested titles for the High Holidays from the
temple library. For young children the library offers a fairly large collection
of picture and board books.

The above books can be found on the small white cart in the library. The
last two titles are board books, appropriate for the very youngest in our
families.

for children. These books are located on the regular shelves of the library
under the call no. Juv 394.26

This last book is also nice for both adults and older children.
As usual the library will have a display of holiday books in the atrium, but
as you can see the library offers many other titles that may not make it out to
the display area. So please stop by and check out the full collection.
