About this ebook
Zissel had everything her heart desired... but didn't know it. When Zissel got rich, she craved expensive jewelry, but the more she bought the sadder she became. In this wildly comic story, Maxine Rose Schur creates a fun yet heart-warming Jewish folk tale that proves we might already have all we would ever need and want.
