The Always Prayer Shawl THE ALWAYS PRAYER SHAWL sheldon oberman Illustrated by Ted LewinHonesdale (Penn.), Boyds Mills Press, 1993 (c1994). 32pp, cloth http://collections.ic.gc.ca/cmarchive/vol22no3/revalwaysprayer.html
Extractions: 1994 May/June This is a comforting story about the importance of tradition and the certainty of change. At the beginning, Adam is a young Jewish boy growing up in Russia in the early 1900s. When the revolution forces his parents to seek a better life in North America, Adam must leave his grandfather, whose name is also Adam, and all that is familiar and dear. The prayer shawl his grandfather gives him takes on tremendous significance and, as Adam grows up, marries and becomes a grandfather himself, the prayer shawl remains a constant in his life. Events come full circle all those years later when Adam's grandson assures him that their "always prayer shawl" and their name "Adam" will continue through the next generations. The text is clear, simply written and concise. Sheldon Oberman, who has written for both children and adults, keeps the story on track and enables the reader to understand even complexities like the Russian Revolution and the passing of time. While it is obviously a story of great personal importance to Oberman, audience appreciation need not be limited to a study of Jewish culture. It will easily appeal to a wide range of readers and can be applied to many situations. The water-color illustrations are an effective mixa soft black and white to portray the past and muted colors to denote the present. Ted Lewin uses a realistic, portrait-like style, focusing on the main characters and their relationships. A gentle, pleasing rhythm, played out through both the words and the pictures in the story reflects the cyclical nature of life.

Literacy Partners Of Manitoba - Write On! - October 1999 - Page 7 Page 7. sheldon oberman on Literacy by Charles Moody. As a student working on theCPR many years ago, sheldon oberman was involved in a gruesome train wreck. http://www.mb.literacy.ca/newslet/nwriteon/oct99/page7.htm
Extractions: by Charles Moody In talking about literacy to a group of prisoners at Stony Mountain, he used the anecdote to move them to tell their own stories as a way of finding their joy and exorcising their pain and loneliness. Sheldon Oberman is passionate about literacy. Like the rest of us, he acknowledges the practical value of literacy in enabling people to live productive lives. He understands, as well, the emotional well-being that comes from the ability to read and write. People need to feel good about themselves. For him, literacy is storytelling. The stories may be oral or written. In his visits to schools, Mr Oberman gets the children excited about telling stories. They look into themselves for their stories, express them in oral activities, then write them down. Telling the story to his son was an affirmation of his own identity. He then asked his audience who they needed to tell stories about, and to whom. Mr Oberman finds that the adults who continue to strive for literacy continue because they have something to say. They need to tell their own stories. Convincing people that they have something to say, motivates them to work towards literacy. www.mbnet.mb.ca/~soberman/
