Myjewishlearning's 120 Jewish Books for Every Age - Page 3

From MyJewishLearning: "Reading is a lifelong Jewish practice, and great Jewish literature should grow with us over the years. Psalm 90, traditionally ascribed to King David, declares: "The span of our life is 70 years, or, given the strength, 80." But Jews are an optimistic people. Moses lived to 120, and we wish the same for ourselves and those around us. Ad me'ah v'esrim — to 120! — is a common Jewish birthday wish.
So here we offer recommendations of the best that Jewish literature has to offer, a book for every age, from birth all the way to 120. "
