Series Review: I Belong"Each volume is narrated from the point of view of a child. With two or three paragraphs per page, it covers an array of issues, all explained within the context of the narrator's own life: celebrations, sacred places and persons, prayer, and personal behavior. High-quality photographs superimposed on a pale, mosaiclike background show the narrator with family, worshiping, reading, and participating in religious events."

Book Review: I Belong to the Jewish Faith
"...[the perspective of a small boy and his family] helps children see how various religious ceremonies are celebrated with families and members of like faith. It is written respectfully and without judgment. The disclaimer is a nice touch to let readers know that Sam's faith is uniquely his and not indicative of all Jewish families."
