“K is for Kite
Today we have gone fishing. Dad's excited, so am I.
He's angling in the ocean. Me? I'm fishing in the sky.
Dad cast his line. Hours have passed. He hasn't had one bite.
I feel a sharp tug on my string. Hurray, I've caught a kite.
My catch is big and colorful, and trails a bow-tied tail.
My dad is packing up his bait, his hooks, his rod and reel.
When I get home, I'll show my prize and put it on display.
When Dad gets home he'll tell tall tales of fish that got away.”
Richard Michelson, S Is for Sea Glass: A Beach Alphabet

“I am a Jew a generation after the Holocaust. Poorer, my grandfather says, without a past, than he, who has no future.”
Richard Michelson

“The children's room of our public libraries are where the foundations of a better world are being laid. We need more on race and religious discrimination and on democracy, on good-will and tolerance. We need literature which will yield respect for all heritage and cultures. [words of Fanny Goldstein, librarian]”
Richard Michelson, Fanny's Big Idea: How Jewish Book Week Was Born
