A multicultural addition to the Passover picture book canon, this sweet story explores the meaning of freedom for the Jewish people-and their pets! Also available in Spanish: La gran sorpresa de Pésaj. This Passover, Jordanita's family is leaving their Miami apartment and flying to Argentina to spend the holiday with their cousin. Visiting their cousin is the best, since he not only has a giant yard--he also has two dogs, a cat, two turtles, and two parrots called Tic and Toc! But when Jordanita hears the Passover story this year, she can't help but notice that Tic and Toc are in a cage. If the point of Passover is to celebrate freedom, shouldn't that apply to all creatures? Celebrated Jewish Argentine author Ana María Shua explores the nature of freedom and the love of family in this warm-hearted tale, perfectly paired with the gentle humor of Spanish illustrator Angeles Ruiz's lively illustrations.
