A National Jewish Book Award Winner

Psychologist and folklorist Michele Klein draws upon many rich sources-prayers, folktales, folk remedies, as well as biblical, rabbinical, and mystical literature-to explore childbirth from a specifically Jewish context.

A Time to Be Born Reviews

Childbirth has undergone a revolution, and Michele Klein's book gives historical depth the Jewish perspective of this revolution. It deserves a place on parents' bookshelves next to classics like . . . What to Expect When You're Expecting. Besides being extremely informative about the abundance of Jewish folklore surrounding childbirth, Klein's book addresses the emotional and spiritual issues involved in every aspect of birth.-Jerusalem Post
