Review
David Adler retells the Passover story for young children in an age appropriate way that is true to the bible story, simply told in a factual way, not leaving out the killing or violence, just stating what happened, but then goes on. The artwork by Jill Weber is brightly painted with acrylics, goes very well with the text, is detailed and colorful. Children will enjoy the many details, being able to retell the story using the illustrations. Rabbi Frank A. Tamburello is thanked for his expert reading of the text and art. Very well done, a good addition to library collections.
Overall Book Score: very good
