Description

For your Passover seder, two wonderful additions, retelling the Exodus story for the young and the young at heart. 


The Bronfman Haggadah by Edgar Bronfman, illustrated by Jan Aronson (Rizzoli, hardcover) presents the Exodus story filtered through the author's personal philosophy while drawing inspiration from his own Jewish experience. Designed to foster Jewish pride, which Bronfman considers essential for Jewish commitment, the text continues the traditional commandment to retell the Exodus story of slavery and freedom for future generations. [Read about Jan Aronson's illustrations in this article from Lilith, Winter 2012-13.]


The Longest Night: A Passover Story written by Laurel Snyder with illustrations by Catia Chien (Schwartz & Wade hardcover, ages 4-8). Day after day, the young slave girl works for her master, until, suddenly, the world begins to change. The river turns to blood; herds of animals fall ill; locusts devour the year's crops....In this poetic, accessible depiction of the Passover story, young readers and listeners will experience the events of the Exodus from Egypt from the point of view of a Jewish child. [Read Maya Gottfried's article about Laurel Snyder in the Fall 2010 issue of Lilith.]
