Keeping the Promise

Follow the incredible journey of a small Torah scroll from a Dutch rabbi to a Bar Mitzvah boy during the Holocaust and finally to Ilan Ramon, the first Israeli astronaut, who died on space shuttle Columbia.

This is a fixed-format ebook, which preserves the design and layout of the original print book.

“This book belongs on the shelves of Hebrew day schools and synagogue libraries nationwide. Paired with Barbara Sofer’s Ilan Ramon: Israel’s Space Hero (Kar-Ben, 2004), it will give students insight into a true hero’s journey as well as a lesson in history and humanity.” —School Library Journal
