When Your Son Will Ask is written from a very specific position: that of a father who is not religious himself, but comes from a Jewish family.

He knows his son will grow up surrounded by rituals, holidays, and traditions that belong to his wider family life. They will be present at tables, during celebrations, in stories and habits. This book was created to offer context when questions arise; to explain terms, customs, and moments as they are lived, not preached. Alongside this, the book reflects on a broader question: what does religion mean in the world we live in today? It does so from a personal, questioning perspective, treating religion as lived experience rather than belief alone.
