Had Gadya: A Passover Song

32 pp. | Roaring Brook/Brodie | March, 2005 | Trade ISBN 1-59643-033-8 $16.95
(3) K-3 This cumulative verse traditionally sung at the end of Passover Seder begins with a goat who is eaten by a cat who is bitten by a dog and so on. A note on the various religious interpretations of the text appears at the end along with the jaunty tune and Aramaic transliteration. Chwast's playful paintings are set in an Eastern European village.
