Sydney Taylor Audio Books

Sydney Taylor (1904–1978), born New York’s Lower East Side, was one of the first authors of children’s books centered on Jewish characters. She began writing when she was married and had a daughter, to whom she told bedtime stories about growing up with five sisters. She wrote a manuscript and put it in a drawer, and it wasn’t until her husband secretly submitted it to Charles A. Follet Award for Writing that Taylor’s bedtime stories became the immensely popular All-of-a-Kind Family series. The Sydney Taylor Book Award is given each year by the Jewish Association of Libraries to a book for young people that authentically portrays the Jewish experience.
