My mother gave me this book my first year in college when i was homesick. Now, even as a senior, i read myself a story before bed. The tradition of hasidic story telling which Carlebach continues and the enthusiasm and warmth with which he does so is inspiring and good for the spirit. This is a book i read to myself, my friends, my love, and will read to my children. This book is a great way to bring Jewish themes into your home and experiencing life the way the hasidic masters once did. They deal with aspects of life and love such as poverty, marriage, heaven, the Sabbath, integrity, honesty and more. Bring your soul to a higher place. L'Chaim!

Ahh, if you knew Reb Shlomo you knew he was a master story teller, maybe the best of all time. These are great tales BUT they are no where as good as hearing them, a good idea would have been to include a CD with him playing, singing and telling his charming teaching stories that went right to the heart.

Shlomo was also a great storyteller. His stories inspire and strengthen the faith of the listener. No matter what it is he always manages to infuse it with his own special feeling and spirit his own love of people. Now that he is gone these stories too like his music his niggunim his many students of which the highest of the highest in my opinion was his holy joker Dovid Hertzberg continue to warm the hearts of the Yidden and bring them closer to Hashem.

I love Rabbi Carlebach's stories. He was an amazing story teller and has the ability to transform the reader back in time. The stories are so inspirational and meaningful. The lessons in the book really make the reader think about their own life and actions. I can honestly say, Rabbi Carlebach has transformed my life with his teachings.
