My Life With Georgeby Judith Summers Read by Hilary Michel (1 Cd) It is certainly true that after a bereavement getting an animal of any kind is extremely comforting no matter how much extra work may be involved. My Life With George is a moving and often funny account of a cute dog and his adventures. Misdemeanours and the wonderful way he helped fill a huge void in the protagonists lives whilst driving them barking mad along the way.
by Meir shalev Read by Anthony Tibber This is a charming tale of family ties, over - the - top housekeeping and the sport of story-telling in Nihalal. We meet the author's amazing Grandma Tonia, who arrived in Palastine by boat from Russia in 1923 and lived in a constant state of battle with what she viewed as the family's biggest enemy in the new land: dirt! Grandma Tonia was never seen without cleaning a rag over her shoulder. She received visitors outdoors. She allowed only the most privileged guests to enter her spotless house. Grandma Tonia and her regulations come richly to life in a narrative that circles around the arrival into the family's dusty agricultural surroundings, of a big shiny sweeper. The fate of Tonia's sweeper - hidden away for decades in a spotless closed - off bathroom after its initial use - is a family mystery that the author determines to solve. No. 1748 New Voice For Israel, Aby Jeremy Ben-Ami Read by Alan Lewis (5 Cds) This part autobiography and part a plea to find a new way to lead Israel to security and peace with a two state solution. The author is at odds with most of the mainstream pro-Israel movements.
Read by Rita Rosenbaum (1 Cd) This story of two little girls, Devorah & Nechama, takes place during the years 1915-1924. They lived with their parents in Domachevo, a village in Poland near the Russian border. Often under the influence of drink and urged on by Cossacks the local people would attack the Jewish part of town; these attacks were called pogroms. This book tells the story of one such horrendous attack, and how one man, Isaac Ochberg, rescued 200 Jewish children, and took them via Pinsk, Warsaw and London to South Africa where many of them were adopted by Jewish families. The story of their stoical lives, their journeys and their new beginning is moving, sometimes humorous and finally uplifting. The book is based on fact and of what is known of the childhood of the author's mother-in-law and her sister.

No. 1576 No Joke: Making Jewish Humor by Ruth Wisse Read by Frieda Bier
Read by Derina Dinkin (1 Cd) This book describes how Jews have coped since biblical times with worry, by using humour, mysticism, dream interpretation, and traditions. By studying how Jews handled their worries in the past, we can gain a new perspective on our own worries and perhaps widen our view of Jewish traditions. 'Jewish wisdom' says author Michelle Klein, can give us courage to face a world that often appears uncertain and threatening'.
Read by J Kaye and A Boston (1 Cd) Nothing is lost - poetry by Miriam Samuels who used to attend Jewish Care's Brenner Community Centre in Stamford Hill.
NPR Curious Listener's Guide, Theby Max Morath Read by Hilary Michel (1 Cd) There is no one better qualified to write about this tuneful subject than Max Morath, whose musical interests obviously range far beyond the ragtime that made him famous. The subject matter is the 'standard' songs that have defied the laws of popular music gravity. Instead of fading from view in a few weeks, these songs have remained in the public mind long after other tunes have been forgotten. Mr Morath describes the songs, the composers, and the historical setting surrounding the music that has impacted the lives and loves of more than one generation, an influence that lives on today. A thorough treatment of a delightful topic.
