About this ebook
Akiva is just a poor shepherd living an ordinary life, until he falls in love with Rachel. Rachel thinks her husband could become a great man of learning—but Akiva can't even read! Is he too old to be a scholar or can he follow the example of the water in the nearby brook? Water is soft, yet drop by drop, it can soften the hardest stone.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5An inspirational story based on the life of Rabbi Akiva. He's now considered one of the wisest of Jewish scholars, but didn't learn to read until age 40, encouraged by his wife. It's a beautiful story of determination, accompanied by the soft and lovely illustrations of Yevgenia Nayberg.
