Description

Did Jew Know? is a graphically illustrated guide filled with fun, surprising and informative facts about Jewish life, culture and religious practice--presented in an irreverent (but not disrespectful) voice. This hilarious compendium of Jewishness offers a slew of little-known tidbits on every facet of Jewish life, from food and drink and religious practice to geography, culture and more.
