Description
A moving story which inlcludes a CD narration by Leonard Nimoy
Description from Richard Michelson:
Aaron loves his grandfather very much, even if he is a little bit embarrassed by Zayde’s funny accent and the way he waves his arms when he talks. Aaron longs to read his grandfather's treasured books, but when he asks to learn Yiddish, the language Zayde spoke in the Old Country, Zayde refuses. In America, Aaron is told, Jews should speak and read English just like everyone else.
As the years pass, Zayde grows old, and Aaron grows up. It isn't until Zayde himself abandons his heritage that they both realize the importance of preserving their family history and culture. Aaron and Zayde's bond grows even deeper as they realize you're never too young-or too old-for Yiddish.
An author's note about the Yiddish language as well as a glossary and pronunciation guide of Yiddish terms are included.
Listen to Leonard Nimoy's reading of the book.

Baked Fresh by Dani and Her Mom, Julie Nimoy
Julie Nimoy is an accomplished chef and baker who received her degree from Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in Los Angeles. She served as the house baker at a family-owned deli in Los Angeles, where she crafted delicious desserts and treats for many years.
Julie felt her most significant sense of achievement when her father, Leonard Nimoy, praised her desserts. He was her biggest fan and particularly enjoyed her chocolate cake and cookies, especially her chocolate chip mandelbrot!
In tribute to Leonard and his sweet tooth, Julie and Dani are delighted to share Julie's special vanilla shortbread cookies.
