Last month, the fine folks over at Tribe, the Young Unit­ed Syn­a­gogue in the UK, repub­lished Sid­dur Shevet Ash­er (aka the Chief Rabbi’s Children’s Sid­dur) for chil­dren ages 8 – 12 (it was orig­i­nal­ly pub­lished 15 years ago). The new edi­tion takes into con­sid­er­a­tion the affect of col­or blind­ness on chil­dren, and includes a new sec­tion on fes­ti­vals to account for the fact that many com­mu­ni­ties are unable to afford a sid­dur and a mach­zor for the High Hol­i­days. Read more about the sid­dur here and click here to down­load a sam­ple. (Note: Val­len­tine Mitchell is dis­trib­ut­ing Sid­dur Shevet Ash­er in the US.)
