Rebecca's Passover

Rebecca's family is getting ready to celebrate the Jewish festival of Passover, and she is helping Granny Sarah make the food needed for the special meal called the Seder. The family will sit down on the first and second evening of the celebration and eat matzah for eight days. As Rebecca and her brother work, Granny Sarah tells them the story of Passover: how God sent the ten plagues to the Egyptians and how Moses led the freed Israelite slaves through the Red Sea and across the desert. Sensitive text and vivid artwork show the vitality and timelessness of this story.
