Description

The magic of reading bedtime stories to our children and the shared worlds they create are celebrated in Ilana Kurshan's "Children of the Book: A Memoir of Reading Together."

Join the author for a conversation about her new memoir and how shared reading fostered her children's independence, strengthened family bonds and revealed surprising connections between ancient Jewish texts and modern parenthood.
