Valery Dymshits and Michael Felsenbaum have collected and translated a wonderful collection of children's and folk songs from all over the world into a living and melodic Yiddish. The result is a colourful book that is aimed at both children and adults who love the language. The book "Eyns, tsvey, dray, lider, lider, lay" begins with songs and rhymes that flourished among Yiddish-speaking children in the early 1900s. This is followed by a journey through rhymes, rhymes and songs from many cultures: Armenian, Georgian, Japanese, Lithuanian, English, Polish, Finnish, French and Swedish works are discussed. The book is beautifully illustrated by Emil Singer-Für, who with his distinctive style invites you to sing and explore together. "Eyns, tsvey, dray, lider, lider, lay" is a warm tribute to childhood, cultural diversity and the eternal melody of Yiddish. Perfect to discover with the children or to enjoy as an adult rediscovering the playful side of language.
