Debra Darvick’s delightful picture book mirrors today’s emerging Jewish reality; a Jewish face is dark-haired and dark-eyed and blonde and blue-eyed. A Jewish face belongs to a Chinese adoptee and to a newborn from Guatamala. It is the face of an African American convert and that of a festively dressed bride from India. We Are Jewish Faces sings the long overdue song of Jewish diversity with passion, honesty, and celebration. We Are Jewish Faces affirms identity, embraces diversity, and celebrates Jewish life, all in one remarkable little book.
