Her works include What the Moon Brought and a series of stories featuring K'Tonton, a boy the size of a thumb, who has adventures, which feature Jewish holidays and culture. One of the central themes of Jewish family stories has been Jewish religion/history. As Jews became integrated into American culture, they used American pedagogical formats to teach them stories about the Bible, and about Jewish history. Jews also used modern children's literature to teach children about Jewish holidays and beliefs with popular series like those inaugurated in this book by The Adventures of K'tonton (1935) by Sadie Rose Weilerstein - using humor, pathos, and relatable fictional families to engross generations of children in the details of Jewish observance.
