Yosef Shidler — the storyteller behind the series.
Why a wedding photographer started writing miracle books — and where the series goes next.
Yosef Shidler
Photographer, storyteller, and the creator of Amazing Miracle Stories for Kids. Yosef spent years behind a camera capturing simchas — and realized the same eye for a great moment could bring the stories of tzaddikim to life for a generation of kids growing up surrounded by slick content.
“If we don't give them good quality content, they're going to find it in other places.” That one line is the whole mission — and five volumes later, it's working.
It takes a team to tell a miracle.
Writers & Researchers
Four to five writers work on the series regularly, with dedicated research help — gathering, verifying, and retelling each story for young readers.
Illustrators & Designers
Visual designers and illustrators give every story its color — full-color pictures on almost every page.
Sponsors & Partners
Every volume so far was brought to print by families who believe kids deserve this. That could be you.
