TzaddikStory.org is a non-profit endeavor dedicated to getting back to basics by creating beautiful content about tzaddikim and their miracles that is suitable for kids and the whole family..

While many books on tzaddikim and good middos are available, a lot of them are written in an old-fashioned style with complex vocabulary that requires frequent interruptions to explain or simplify for children. On the other hand, some books that use simpler language were written 30 years ago and lack the colorful visuals and exciting graphics that today's kids expect. As a result, it is challenging to find a good quality, well-written, child-friendly book with stories about the Rebbe and other tzaddikim that is appealing to today's young readers

That is where the TzaddikStory project was born. The "Amazing Miracle Stories for Kids" book series aims to change this trend by offering solid stories with easy-to-understand words and engaging illustrations that will capture the imaginations of children today. These stories are presented in a straightforward manner that allows you and your kids to fully appreciate the beauty of each story.

Additionally, today's children may be used to hearing stories about tzaddikim from years long gone, but the stories from kevrie tzaddikim, stories about modern-day miracles, and the lessons to learn from these stories are a key focus of this book series. Much effort is spent researching stories, which often includes first-hand interviews. We are always open to new stories about tzaddikim, amazing miracles, and anything you feel might be worthwhile to share.



Reb Yosef Shidler, the founder of TzaddikStory.org, is a resident of Toms River, New Jersey, who was on a quest to find high-quality, child-friendly books with stories about the Lubavticher Rebbe, Chabad Rebbeim, and other tzaddikim. After being unable to find much content in the stores that properly fit the bill, Shidler decided to undertake the project himself.

He worked in close collaboration with many experienced writers, mechanchim, mashpaim, and talented artists to create a book(s) that is suitable for children and adults from all demographics across the Chabad, Litvish, and Chassidish world.

Shidler’s inspiration behind this momentous endeavor was his love for stories. He has been a long-time fan of Rabbi Nachman Seltzer, a well-known author. Stories have always been his thing, and even before he came to Chabad in his teen years, the series ‘Visions of Greatness’ by Rabbi Yosef Weiss A’H was highly influential to his spiritual growth.

Yosef Shidler is a man with many passions and accomplishments. He is also known for his work as the founder of DollarDaily.org, a nonprofit organization that provides financial assistance to shluchim. In addition to his philanthropic work, Yosef's entrepreneurial spirit is also evident in his work with CJ Studios, a business he co-founded with his wife Sarah. Together, they provide creative services and photography to clients across a wide range of industries.

The creation of these beautiful books was truly a group effort, with a team of talented authors and illustrators working together to bring the stories to life. The roster of writers includes Baila Brickman, Shani Eichler, Chaya Chazan, Adrien McKenna, and Rabbi Mendel Heidingsfeld, each of whom brought their unique voice and style to the project. Meanwhile, the illustrations were brought to life by a team of skilled artists, including Rinku Theophin, the P66 Design Team, Mihalio Miljanović, and Jennifer

It's no surprise that a project of this magnitude and quality comes with a significant price tag. The production of the second book alone cost over $45,000, a substantial amount that was raised through fundraising efforts. Despite the challenges of financing, the team remained dedicated to their vision of creating engaging and meaningful books that would inspire and delight readers of all ages.

Looking to inspire and educate children with amazing stories of tzaddikim, the two volumes of "Amazing Miracle Stories for Kids" are now available worldwide in Jewish bookstores and can be ordered directly from the project's website, tzaddikstory.org.

In addition to the books, new stories are released weekly in the Beis Moshiach Magazine, keeping the excitement and inspiration flowing. The team is already hard at work on the third book, which promises to be even more captivating than the previous two.

However, producing such high-quality content comes with a price tag, and the project relies on donations to continue. Every penny raised is reinvested in creating more content, and all proceeds from book sales are used to fund future publications. If you want to help support the project and bring more amazing stories to children, donations are always appreciated.
