What is a Klezmer Band without a fiddler? When Isaac the fiddler becomes ill, ten-year-old Shira, who has been practicing secretly, is ready to play at the community's Hanukkah party. In this story set in nineteenth-century Canada, the music and high spirits move the tale along. Warmly colored oil paintings glow with good feeling.
