The North Plainfield School
District provides an extensive Gifted and Talented
Enrichment Program called KINDLE. The KINDLE Program
includes enrichment activities for all the elementary
students in North Plainfield. As the KINDLE teacher at Stony
Brook School, I became aware of the fact that Mrs. Watkins
was including Jacob's Rescue in her class studies. The book
was so moving and touched so many of the students that I
thought you might be interested in their reactions....Mrs.
Watkins assigned the students to illustrate the images from
the book and to write their ideas. The KINDLE Kids group
evaluated the illustrations, organized them and assembled
them into (a) book you now hold in their hands. We here in
North Plainfield thank you for your insightful work and hope
that this book serves as a reminder to you of how much
Jacob's Rescue has meant to us.

This
is when Aunt Hannah holds Jacob and cries. Jacob feels her
tears. It's when they are in the Ghetto.-Student
