May is Jewish American Heritage Month in the United States, and the Cobb Public Library System has published a booklist with resources at most branches.
The commemoration was first proclaimed by former President George W. Bush in 2006 and notes the achievements of American Jews in history, culture and society (official website here, hosted by the Library of Congress).
The Cobb Library collections include fiction and non-fiction titles for children and preteens, as well as adults, and range from history and humor to religious observances, food, stories of Jewish life, artistic and cultural achievements, the Holocaust and the current conflict with Gaza.
