“Just in time for the New Year! At long last, we can share with the world a taste of the Tagged Tanakh (TT) prototype!” JPS Interactive

Object Adjective is please to announce the launch of Change the World for Ten Bucks. Once again, Chronicle Books approached us to help them build an community website, this time to help change the world.

Judging the book by its cover
