Product Description:
When the prime minister of Persia decides to destroy all the Jews throughout the kingdom, their fate seems to be sealed. Only one person stands in his way -- a young Jewish girl named Esther. Internationally known folklorist Diane Wolkstein brings to life the story of Esther, the compassionate queen who risked the wrath of a king to save her people from destruction. Award-winning illustrator Juan Wijngaard reflects this biblical heroine's majesty and humanity with his Jewel-like illustrations. Together, these two masters have created a picture book of rare beauty that honors Esther, whose courage and wisdom are celebrated the world over during the joyous feast of Purim. Ages 7 up.

Customer Reviews

Really brings the Bible to life! 5 out of 5 stars
This is the best attempt I have ever seen at bringing a Jewish story to life. Esther is a real, very believable person. We get an inside view at how the traditional story unfolds with lots of additional, realistic, details. The pictures are gorgeous. If you only want one Purim story book this should be it!
