Happy to see that The Miracle Seed was chosen as one of the best Children's Books for 2023! www.tabletmag.com/sections/community/articles/best-jewish-childrens-books-2023?fbclid=IwAR1FF9cC8Os6Nf9gWT3JAQJvME7ce4ZfSePZkrtYbEMKwRZrrIb3wEi5PAY While not a biography per se, The Miracle Seed by Martin Lemelman tells the true story of an ancient Judean date palm seed found at Masada and the two women scientists, Elaine Solowey and Sarah Sallon, who coaxed it back to life. Told in a graphic format, the book provides context and history of the Jewish people in the land of Israel including a timeline beginning with the erection of the First Temple in approximately 957 BCE. An epigraph quotes Genesis Rabbah as stating, “There is no plant without an angel in heaven tending it and telling it, ‘Grow!’” Another quote, from C.S. Lewis, says, “Miracles do not, in fact, break the laws of nature.” This is a book for anyone interested in Israel (ancient or modern), botany, or, simply, miracles. Tablet Magazine  |
