How do you teach “History”? Israeli Ministry of Education apparently solved this puzzle. The solution: It’s not the contents, but rather the title, that matters. I’ve been volunteering for several months, helping small children in the age of 10 years or so with their homework from school. Many of them attend what is known as […]
There is a funny thing about writing fiction and legends. Things that are unimaginable in real life, become quite normal in fairy tales (the fairies themselves, to name one – no sexual meaning is intended here).

We all know the Biblical story of Noah and the great flood. As children, we learned about it in school. It’s very likely that since then we’ve encountered several religious preachers, who bothered to explain some archeological studies, which allegedly revealed the traces of that secret flood deep underground all over the world.
