Kindline (Yiddish: קינדליין) i/kɪndlaɪŋ/ is a New York based Yiddish language weekly magazine founded in late 2014, with the first edition appearing on 16 December 2014.[1]

Originally aimed at children and young adults, Kindline is now read by all ages[2] and distributed worldwide weekly. Distribution scope is chiefly in areas where Yiddish readers reside, which include the United States, Canada, the UK, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria and Israel.[3]

Articles and features include an elucidation of the Weekly Torah portion, world history, Jewish history, wildlife, travel, comics, crafts, puzzles, parables and stories.

Writers and illustrators

Kindline is unique among Charedi publications in that writers and illustrators must attribute their work using their real name within the magazine, and not use a pseudonym as is traditionally accepted at many Yiddish publications.

Kindline writers and editors are mostly noted educators, teachers or speakers in the Chareidi community.[3] The editorial board includes author and lecturer, Rabbi Fishel Shachter,[4] Editor-in-Chief Mendel Paneth and Dovid Weber.[5] Staff writers include, Ari Abramowitz,[6] and historian Joseph Kwadrat[7] among many others.

Kindline illustrations and comics are mostly the works of acclaimed Israeli artists, such as Gadi Pollak,[8] Jacky Yarhi, Deborah Kotovsky[9] Batsheva Havlin, Yoel Waxberger, Avram Zmora and other artists.

Books

In collaboration with illustrators and publishing company Kinder Shpiel, Kindline regularly publishes hardcover comic books of comic serials that were previously printed in the magazine.
