This might be the most eclectic pile of books ever. Can you tell my school had a book fair this week? And that my library holds came in (always all at once🙄🤷🏻‍♀️). I‘m definitely ready for Shabbos!

This week has been trying and difficult for many reasons. But the hardest has been #yomhashoah also known as #holocaustmemorialday I‘m really feeling so emotional about it in a way I haven‘t in a while. It‘s hurting my heart. 💔🖤 (more in comments)

ElishaLovesBooks Part of it is because I‘m relatively new to #instagram and the images are just surrounding me everywhere. Part of it is because I‘m teaching The Diary of Anne Frank right now to a diverse group of 7th graders. And every year that goes by, we‘re all farther and farther removed. And I can see it in the kids. And I worry I‘m not doing enough to help them understand. 5y
ElishaLovesBooks Teaching is such a huge responsibility. Education is where it all starts. And I hope and pray I‘m doing enough. And finally, books are where I always turn for comfort. They will always be here. There will always be more to learn. 📚 (edited) 5y

4.5/5⭐ Everything a book about the Holocaust should be: brutal and important. Appropriately, I finished this book about the necessity of remembering today on #YomHaShoah, #HolocaustRemembranceDay.

“Live,” he whispered. “For my Chaya. For all our Chayas. Live. And remember.”

Today is Yom Hashoah - Holocaust Remembrance Day. Back when I taught in FL I was fortunate enough to meet and hear one of the 5 survivors highlighted in Spielberg's documentary, The Last Days, Irene Zisblatt on more than one occasion when she spoke and met with students during our Holocaust Unit. I used Yolen's book as a point of entry and also taught about propaganda. #neverforget #yomhashoah #holocaustremembranceday
