Reviews for The Little Encyclopedia of Jewish Culture

I'm the kind of Jew who would devour The Little Encyclopedia of Jewish Culture. --Jonathan Katz, co-creator/star, Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist; comedian/author/actor/musician Oy, such a nice book. Klickstein's mother should be so proud. --Mike Reiss, four-time Emmy Award-winning writer/producer of The Simpsons, co-creator of The Critic You don't have to be Jewish to enjoy The Little Encyclopedia of Jewish Culture (but it wouldn't hurt!) --Steve Stoliar, bestselling author of Raised Eyebrows: My Years Inside Groucho's House (soon to be major motion picture starring Geoffrey Rush) Like Koufax's fastball, this book is powerful and amazing. Klickstein answers all the questions I wanted to know and feared I'd be pushy if asked --Allen Salkin, bestselling author of From Scratch: The Uncensored History of the Food Network and Festivus: The Holiday for the Rest of Us, journalist for Vanity Fair and Los Angeles Magazine
