Rav Avraham Yeshayahu Karelitz, the Chazon Ish, was a gaon and gadol hador whose brilliance in Torah, devotion to Hashem, and love of his fellow Jews changed the Jewish world in recent times. Although he was a towering talmid chacham even while living in Europe, it was only later in his life, whesn he moved to Eretz Yisrael, that his greatness became so apparent to others.

The Chazon Ish’s vast wisdom in matters of all kind, including science and medicine, stemmed directly from his Torah learning, creating a kiddush Hashem for all who came in contact with him. His genius in halachah enabled him to provide practical solutions for countless issues throughout the Torah community.

In The Story of the Chazon Ish, geared specifically for junior readers, you will read all about this holy tzaddik’s life and accomplishments, including many wondrous stories told about him. Prepared to be inspired like never before!
