NEW! Young People’s Book Club (in person)

April 11, 2026

TBZ is launching a book club at Shabbat kiddush lunch! Join librarian David Vitale-Wolff and TBZ members of all ages to discuss a Jewish children’s book during kiddush.

Email David at dvitalewolff@gmail.com with any questions.

Children and adults of all ages are welcome!

Join us on Saturday, April 11th where we will discuss Chunky by Yehudi Mercado. In this full-color middle grade graphic memoir, Mercado draws inspiration from his childhood struggle with his weight while finding friendship with his imaginary mascot, Chunky, as he navigates growing up in a working class Mexican-Jewish family.
