On Wings of Joy

The Story of Ballet from the 16th Century to Today

By: Trudy Garfunkel

“A lucid and interesting history” of ballet—from sixteenth-century French Royalty to contemporary masters—“that reads like a novel” (Kirkus Reviews). In this engaging history of dance, readers are introduced to the major performers, choreographers, and composers who influenced the development of ballet. Beginning with the birth of the art in the sixteenth-century French court of Catherine d’ Medici, this informative text traces ballet as it evolved in Europe and Russia, and subsequently in England and then the United States. Included are details about the creation of such classics as Giselle, Swan Lake, The Sleeping Beauty, and Serenade, as well as the contributions of such prominent figures as Pavlova, Nijinsky, Balanchine, and Ashton. Fascinating facts include inside looks at contemporary ballet companies, how toe shoes are made, and what a professional dancer’s day is like. All in all, a delightful, enjoyable, and informative historical overview that will delight anyone who enjoys the art of dance.

The Kosher Companion

A Guide to Food, Cooking, Shopping, and Services

By: Trudy Garfunkel

The Kosher Companion is the first consumer guide to the ever-growing world of kosher food and kosher products. It explains the origin and meaning of kosher dietary laws and tells how to identify kosher products by the symbols used to designate them. Buying kosher meats and poultry, and identifying kosher products for vegetarians and for those who are lactose intolerant or allergic to other dairy ingredients, becomes easy using the information given here. There are tips on how to buy foods that are both healthful and kosher and a selection of scrumptious, easy-to-prepare kosher recipes, as well as information on kosher wines, and on mail-ordering kosher foods. Also included are lists of hotels, restaurants, supermarkets, and caterers that meet kosher requirements. Today, only twenty-five percent of the purchasers of kosher food are Jews. Why has kosher become so popular? One reason is that a growing number of health-conscious consumers accept kosher certification (with its strict labeling laws and stringent meat inspection) as a kind of "Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval". Other religious groups besides Jews have turned to kosher foods because of their beliefs. Some five-and-a-half million American Muslims follow dietary laws similar to those of Orthodox Jews, and the 800,000 American Seventh-Day Adventists are encouraged to follow the dietary guidelines given in the Old Testament - the basis of kosher.
