The Miracles of Passover

Around the world, Jews celebrate the miracle of Passover with a Seder. In this follow-up to last season's acclaimed The Miracle of Hanukkah, Josh Hanft retells the story of the Jews' exodus from Egypt, explaining both the history and modern traditions of the Seder. From the story of Moses and the exodus from Egypt to the description of the Seder plate, the significance of one of the most important holidays of the Jewish calendar is explored.

Inventive lift-the-flaps will engage and inform young readers, and Seymour Chwast's luminous artwork truly brings this holiday to life.
