The Baseball Haggadah: A Festival of Freedom and Springtime in 15 Innings

Children/Young Adult; Other Nonfiction; (Market)

This sports oriented guide to the Passover seder portrays the story of the Exodus as a lively baseball game. With Moses as the team captain for the Israelites and Pharaoh heading up the Taskmasters, the lineups struggle for dominance. God throws the ultimate "splitter," making way for the Israelites to cross the Sea of Reeds. Values taught at the seder, such as love of freedom, kindness to strangers, and concern for others are celebrated in this user friendly Haggadah with particular sensitivity to gender equality and transliteration for non-Hebrew readers. Charming illustrations complement the narrative, which remains faithful to the contours of a traditional seder.
