Champion and Jewboy: Two Novellas

Two young adult novellas by Bruce H. Siegel are bound together in Champion and Jewboy. The first novella, Champion, follows a young boy as he discovers his grandfather's hidden past as a boxer. The story reveals the anti-Semitic treatment that his grandfather received in Russia as he tried to become an Olympic boxer. Jewboy, the second novella, features a teenager convicted of vandalizing a synagogue who is transported through time to witness and participate in the most famous anti-Semitic events of the 20th century. Both stories address important issues of anti-Semitism and self-discovery through realistic characters and engaging narrative.Torah Aura Productions publishes books for Jewish schools and families that help celebrate our heritage and our faith.We have over 25 years of experience as the leading creator of high quality educational materials that enable Jewish children to become empowered Jewish adults.Our books guide and enhance the Jewish knowledge, spirituality and identity of children and their families, and our innovative tools bring Judaism alive in synagogues, Hebrew schools, and day schools.Torah Aura Productions was founded in 1981 by a group of innovative Jewish educators who looked out at the field of Jewish education and found materials that were shallow and dull.
