I was moved to write this review after reading this wonderful book with my three daughters, ages 4 to 12. As a parent, I am always looking for books that stimulate discussion as well as entertain. Ross' stories truly bring these heroines to life, and Teis' illustrations are superb. Together, they create a vivid world that brings ancient lessons of courage, hope, and inner strength to modern times. The author thoughtfully provides introductions to each story which help to set them in cultural and historical context. I hope this beautiful book meets much success, it certainly deserves it.

I just got this book for my birthday. I am 11 years old. I liked this book a lot because the women in the book seemed real to me. You never really hear about what was going on for the women in the Bible. I always wondered! This book brings them to life and helps me understand what it was like for them back then. There are a lot of beautiful illustrations too. They are so beautiful! I like to draw and the book gave me a lot of inspiration to become an artist.

Gently written by Lillian hammer Ross, Buba Leah And Her Paper Children is a truly charming children's picture book story about a quiet Jewish family. Visiting her great aunt Buba Leah, little Chava hears Buba Leah speak fondly of her paper children, which prompts Chava to wonder: What are paper children?, And where could they be hidden? The gentle, countryside-manner of the full-color artwork by Mary Morgan beautifully enhance this captivating and highly recommended picture book story for young readers.
