Book excerpt: "In ancient times, as well as nowadays, it has always been worthwhile to listen to your dreams.At night in my dream I saw a shadow that was sitting and studying. The more it studied the wiser and bigger it became. It counted and calculated sums with wheat grains, writing on papyrus and clays, telling fortunes while looking into people's eyes, and more and more people came to hear its advice.This is what happens in real life. When asking for the right advice, the answers we get naturally are wise." This is a magical story about Miriam, the sister of Moses. Some people call her Maria or Mary, but this is the girl who was named Miriam for the first time ever. Through the life of Miriam, we learn how a little girl changed her bitter fate as a slave and in doing so she changed the destiny of the whole slave nation, the Hebrew Nation. Like every historic event, the exodus of the children of Israel from Egypt began with a small human heroism.The Bible is an infinite source of inspiration for many writers throughout generations.A good literature for children deals with the basic questions about life in a funny way. This is a mighty story, for kids, about the power of love, patience and study.This children's book has been written with humor and is suitable for all ages."Yona Levy Grosman is a multi-disciplinary artist, whose artistic activity comprehends paintings, video art, drawings, poetry, children's books, fiction and essays." - Dr. Sorin Heller
