Description

Storytelling - the art of teaching so natural that a story that opens the imagination can feel as nourishing as a good meal. Yaffa found herself captivated by her mother's stories and recognize the perspective these stories gave her. Always seeking to share lessons learned, Yaffa needed to publish her mother's story. The Kiddush Cup is a story of a young girl fleeing Poland alone in 1939 with nothing but a kiddush cup to remind her of her childhood. The book describes the everyday life in a Jewish community and the rising tensions leading up to the main character's adolescent journey to the promise land. The author recounts her mother's stories of the journey from Poland to Israel, while integrating her own journey back to Poland in the early 2000s to trace her mother's steps. The author shares personal family photos and heartwarming reflections on her mother's journey and the importance of perseverance. Yaffa approaches the story with humanity, bringing the reader in with intimate descriptions of everyday life. Her writing is a warm invitation to her table, revealing that we are all human. Through these stories, Yaffa hopes you too can appreciate life and recognize the gifts we all have.

Author Biography:

Yaffa Liebermann was born in Kfar-Ata, Israel in 1945. She became a Physical Therapist and served in the Israel Defense Forces during the 1967 war, where she gained experience treating war-related injuries from both sides of the fence. Yaffa worked in a variety of settings: hospitals, out-patients, psychiatric facilities, home care rehabilitation for spinal cord, and brain trauma in Israel, Switzerland, and the U.S.A. (Virginia and New Jersey). She found her love and passion while working with the elderly in the nursing home environment in New Jersey. Yaffa became a Geriatric Certified Specialist (GCS), board certified by the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) in 1998.In 1996, Yaffa founded Prime Rehabilitation Services, Inc, along with her husband and her daughter Tamar, with the goal of providing the highest quality rehabilitation services to sub-acute nursing home facilities throughout New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.From working in the field, she saw the need to author four books. Her first book was focused on care for a stroke patient, instructing caregivers on the proper care of patients in the first few days after the stroke and continued home care. Three more books were about correct children's posture, with the hope that they will learn how to stand up straight at a young age and carry their bodies with pride. Katie Sokolowski is a diplomate of the American Board of Toxicologists and received her doctorate in neurotoxicology from the Joint Graduate Program in Toxicology at Rutgers University. At heart, Katie is a naturalist obsessed with understanding the natural world ofbiology. Her obsessions propelled her professional career in neurotoxicology while remaining active in her artwork. Tamar Brooks has a Masters in Engineering and a Masters in Business Administration. She, along with her two daughters, Rachel and Kaila, worked to edit The Kiddush Cup. It was a family effort to create this book.
