JEWISH LIFE
Free Jewish Books
Are Just the Beginning
PJ Baby
Parents of small children know that stories are for more than
just bedtime. The wonderful habit of ending your child’s busy
day by reading together inspired this popular national program
funded in part through the Harold Grinspoon Foundation.
PJ Library o昀昀ers free, high-quality Jewish books and music each
month to children ages 6 months through 8 years all across
North America.
PJ Library is so much more than books. Through family
engagement programs, we make PJ Library come to life for
Jewish and multi-faith families. Learn more about PJ Library at:

Special thanks to Sue & Rick Strait Young Family Engagement Endowment
Fund for ensuring PJ Library’s current and future sustainability for the
