Jewish tradition is rich in stories, many of which center around the lives and work of the great chasidic rabbis, known as rebbes. As a child, Sterna Citron, who descends from distinguished rabbinic families, was surrounded by these stories. Each night at bedtime, her father, the late Rabbi Eli Chaim Carlebach, a member of one of the most outstanding rabbinic families of Germany, would tell her stories. Fiftytwo of these stories, many of which appear here for the first time in English, are now collected in Why the Baal Shem Tov Laughed: Fiftytwo Stories about Our Great Chasidic Rabbis.
