The story of Passover from the Bible with an aside that ancient Egyptian texts "wrote very little about the Hebrews." I disagree with some of the author's retelling; e.g., the Hebrews built store cities, not temples and pyramids; Moses didn't quite make it to Canaan. I would add that the drops of wine taken from each Seder participant's cup for the plagues is meant to diminish our joy. ( )

The first half of this book is the Biblical story of Passover. The second half goes into great detail about modern Passover practices. Very informative, with simple and cheerful illustrations. ( )

1-3 grades. Interchanges seder with Biblical history; non-God oriented

This book tells the true story of Passover, but if it was just a fictional story then it would not be for kids. The content is disturbing about the ten plagues. It was interesting for me as I knew nothing about Passover but I'd be hesitant to read it to a child unless they were studying Judaism.
