The Book of Life is an interview-format podcast about Jewish kidlit, mostly, with occasional coverage of YA/adult books, music, film and web,  established in December 2005. Host Heidi Rabinowitz is a Judaica librarian at Congregation B'nai Israel of Boca Raton, FL, and the podcast reveals the backstory of materials that might be found in a synagogue library like Heidi's. As director of the Feldman Children's Library at B'nai Israel, Heidi focuses on material aimed at youth, but the podcast does cover a range of subject matter for all ages. If you are a creator of Jewish books, music, film, or web content, please see our submission guidelines.

The Book of Life cools off with summer reading. We learn about the ReaderGirlz web site, and their promotion of a Jewish title: Goy Crazy by Melissa Schorr. Then we talk to Melissa herself! We hear from the music group Sababa. And we talk to Nextbook.org for summer reading recommendations.
