A Better Safe Than Sorry Book

A Better Safe Than Sorry Book, published in Israel in 2012, is a children's book aimed at Haredi Jewish children addressing the issue of child sexual abuse and warning children to stay away from sex abusers. The book is a collaboration between Ella Bargai, a secular Jew, and Nitai Melamed, an Orthodox rabbi.

Reception

The book has generally been well-received, selling out of its first printing soon after being released.[1] Rabbis from the Hasidic, Lithuanian, and Sephardic communities have endorsed it. However, the Gur Hasidim have rejected the book because it includes women and girls in addition to men and boys.[2]

gollark: The deltas thing would introduce quite a lot of complexity in processing, you see.
gollark: But this is also not very space-efficient (although most notes will be small enough that this isn't a massive issue).
gollark: I was thinking about how to do revisions in minoteaur™, you see, and the easiest method would just be to, on every edit, store a compressed version of the content (this is also what dokuwiki does).
gollark: I see.
