Distillation with Bracha Goetz

Distillation with Bracha Goetz

Author: Rivky Itzkowitz: Founder at Impact Fashion November 20, 2023 Duration: 49:00

I sit down with Bracha Goetz, a prolific children's book author,  to discuss her work. She shares why she identifies as a six year old boy, the impact of her groundbreaking book Let's Stay Safe, how she distills complex topics down to their simplest parts so children can understand, and how children in Israel are handling the war.

Bracha Goetz is the author of 42 books that help children's souls shine and a candid memoir for adults about her journey in Judaism, Nourish the Soul.  You can meet her books in Jewish bookstores, on Amazon, and on her website: www.goetzbookshop.com
