The Secret Seder

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Emily Arnold McCully. Hitler has overtaken Europe, and young narrator Jacques and his Jewish family are living in a small French village, posing as Catholics. At Passover, Jacques's father dares to take him into the mountains to celebrate the ceremonial feast traditionally held on the first two nights of the holiday. McCully's solemn, brooding watercolors enhance this suspenseful tale of the power of faith. Reading list.
