The Blessing of a Skinned Knee

Using Jewish teachings to raise self-reliant children. The format for the second book discussion was to give each participant an opportunity to read their favorite quote. People in the group took a few minutes to comment on the quote giving the reader of the quote the last word. The discussion went very well except when it came time for me to read my quote I forgot to hold my comments until the end. The book inspired some good discussions about parenting and we got to know each other a little better in the process.  Group participants came up with the book idea, focusing on one chapter at a time and favorite quotes.  I look forward to hearing more suggestions for next years book discussions. I'm wondering if we could do the same thing with Hebrew School classes. One chapter of a book could be photocopied for every student to take home and read, pick a quote and come into the library for a discussion. Younger students could come in with a parent. We could also have film discussions...
