A Passover story of a girl who learns to appreciate her Jewish heritage in Inquisition-era Spain.
Raquela yearns to celebrate a Passover seder, but Inquisition-era Spain is a time when Jews must hide their religion. Under the rising moon, her clever papa, the best fisherman in town, creates a unique celebration for his family. In his fishing boat on the sea, far from prying eyes, they celebrate Raquela’s first seder with matzah and the Passover story.
Historical note. “About Passover.” Full-color illustrations.
