Synopsis
Another Passover? Another
Seder? The Lerner kids, Ariel and Benjamin, think it's the most boring
holiday ever... that’s until their "Bubbe" finds a magical,
musical way to tell them the story that every Jew around the world tells
at their Passover table and has for thousands of years. With their
grandmother's enchanting storytelling, the children travel back in time
to ancient Egypt and experience first-hand the liberation of the Hebrews
from slavery. As they embody Moses and his brave sister, Miriam,
Benjamin confronts the Pharaoh to “let my people go” and Ariel leads
them through the parting of the Red Sea. The Lerner kids (and
listeners and readers alike) will forever remember the story of Passover and the
meaning behind its holiday traditions

Bound
to have kids singing their way through the Seder, reliving the
story and making it their own!
"Matzah & Miracles" is a creative and multi-faceted resource to
involve children in joyfully learning and sharing the Passover
story. The storybook, catchy songs, and activities, are a welcome
contribution for a school or family Seder. With enough material to
use each year, "Matzah & Miracles" has the potential to become a
fixture at any Seder.
Delightful and fresh retelling of the ancient story!
...a marvelous resource for both Christian and Jewish families
where we can read, mark and inwardly digest our common history in a
lively way. Educates and entertains while telling an ancient tale in a modern
format. As Bubbe says, "It is not enough just to tell
the story of Passover...each person must experience it." "Matzah
and Miracles" helps us fulfill this "mitzvah" by drawing us into the
story and making us feel like we were in Egypt ... the songs in the
musical will become part of every child's Passover repertoire. |
