This book, published in 1909, contains two distinct parts bound together. The first section, "Children's Services Arranged for Each Week of the Month," provides liturgical materials for children's religious services throughout the year. The second section, "A Brief Manual Regarding Jewish Faith and Life," offers a concise overview of Jewish beliefs and practices. Both sections were authored by Rabbi Rudolph Grossman, and the book was likely used as a resource in a religious school setting, as indicated by the cover inscription, "Religious School Temple Rodeph Shalom."

This book is the first English edition of a textbook on Jewish religious instruction for children. Translated from the German of J. Joholson by Isaac Leeser, it was published in Philadelphia in 1830. Leeser, then reader of the Portuguese Congregation Mikveh Israel, self-published the work after failing to find a local publisher. The book is dedicated to Leeser's uncle, Zalma Rehnie, of Richmond, Virginia.
