Anyone remember the book- I don't remember all details, boys class made siyum, and big fancy cake ran away cuz someone didn't make a brocha, or something like that... It was one of our favorite book, wanted to read it to my daughter but couldn't find it in mom's bookshelf Sad.
I wonder if anyone on here knows the name- and if it can possibly be bought somewhere...
Then we had another book about lard that was hidden in a factory or somewhere and don't remember how was caught. But oh, I miss those books!

What that in a school, or with schoolchildren or something like that? I've been searching for something similar

Could that be the mezonos house? I don't remember the details clearly (or even if that is the right title)... It was a large sized book, I think there was also a haadama and haetz book?

Yes! There were a few books
Mystery at kosher kandy korner is the one with the lard
The adventures of pri haeitz
Wood stories: tzvi and tzvika

They seem to be out of print and unavailable Sad

I remember it too! I think it was in an Olomeinu anthology but I may be mistaken. My memory is also bringing up a story about bringing flour into the matzah bakery but they were leaving it outside in the rain and it was becoming chametz. Somehow in my mind those two stories are connected but it was more than 20 years ago so it's a little fuzzy.

I see your reply is dated March 2019,
I hope your grandmother is ok, but I would be great if maybe she took her books to other publishing companies and possibly have them reprinted, so the next generation can enjoy these books, preferably hardcover. I see many authors take their books and re-print especially if the publishing company is no longer and they still have the copyrights to their material.

Yes!

Please re-print "Goldy's Toys Rebel".

It was written in the 1970s. Wonderful book.

I was going to scan the copy I found by my mother but didn't. Now I can't find the book. Sad
