Comment: This book was soo funny, I gave it as a gift to my daughter. It is DIck and Jane all over again only with Jewsih terminology and Oiy Vey you can Pish in your pants laughing so hard, My daughter loved it and i know it brought back words her grandparents used to use all the time. You have to read it aloud to get the full affect. We laughed out loud all night long. It is a must in every household.

Summary: oy vey very funny
Comment: we thought we were buying this book for our baby so she can experience some yiddish while we read her a 'classic'...but we found ourselves laughing out loud as we began to read.
our 90 year old mother kept reading the book out loud and commenting on the text.
we had so much fun with it we ended up buying another for a gift for our friend.
it's not alot of substance, but it certainly is a fun read.
probably best if not read to the little ones though as it has some pretty tough topics such as grandma falling down and ending up in hospital etc.

Jane is in real estate.
Today is Saturday.
Jane has an open house.
She must schlep the Open House signs to the car.
See Jane schlep.
Schlep, Jane. Schlep.
Schlep, schlep, schlep.
In text that captures the unque rhythms of the original Dick and Jane readers, and in 35 all-new illustrations, a story unfolds in which Dick and Jane--hero and heroine of the classic books for children that generations of Americans have used when learning to read--manage to express shades of feeling and nuances of meaning that ordinary English just can't deliver. How? By speaking Yiddish, employing terms that convey an attitude--part plucky self-assertion, part ironic fatalism. When Dick schmoozes, when Jane kvetches, when their children fress noodles at a Chinese restaurant, the clash of cultures produces genuine hilarity.
