The Secret Seder

The story of a young Jewish boy, this book is set in a time when being a Jew meant death or imprisonment. This is a story of hope. Jacques and his father travel to take part in the Seder, a Passover meal. When recitiing the four questions, the older men begin to add answers to the questions that deal with the present trials they were facing. The story explains what the Seder is well enough that a non-Jewish person can begin to understand its importance in the Jewish culture. This is an important book for Brooklyn because of the different cultures that merge here. We need to be cognizant of each culture.
