I'd like to share with you a fantastic new resource for teaching and instilling Torah values in a "cool" way for Middle and High School students.
The new book, Wisdom from the Batcave: How to Live a Super, Heroic Life by Rabbi Cary Friedman uses Batman to teach concepts from Torah literature.
He covers topics such as:
How to triumph over adversity
Recognizing the extent of human potential
The value of willpower, hard work, self-esteem, idealism, strong principles, anticipating consequences, study, and friendship.
The book reads easily and has received accolades from Torah (and Batman) authorities. I am in the process of incorporating it into our Middle School curriculum.
