will post the pictures soon.

Miracles in Chelm, by Ronin I. Wood A featured link in the
Jerusalem Report Dec. 2004 magazine pointed this story out. Which reminded me that I had not linked to this site.
Great story written by an 11 year old.. Ok it is my own son, Ronin now 19!
Chelm stories were always a favorite Yiddish story when I was a child. I read
some to Ronin when he was a young child. He continued to read them on his own
when he got older. This story was one of three he wrote for homework while at
the
Hebrew Academy of Tidewater. (Virginia)To see the other two stories,
