Comic Book Siddur
For Shabbat Morning Services
Howard Salmon, Artist and Interpreter
Rabbi Benjamin Sharff, Editor
$24.99 pbA unique way to approach the
Shabbat morning prayers, The Comic Book Siddur is both a functional prayer
book and graphic novel. The service is re-imagined as a superhero quest
story, as a parallel to the Jewish people's never ending quest for peace,
justice and holiness. Each prayer (in Hebrew font) is accompanied by an
action-packed comic book illustration with English translations in "comic
speak" word balloons. The words are spoken by superheroes as they fight
their way to the bimah, bringing the Hebrew prayers to life in an engaging,
educational and informative way. |
