Raya can't be in the Purim play this year--Purim will be no fun at all! But, Raya's grandmother, Maman joon, shares her sparkly scarves and Persian traditions with her. Together they discover how to make their American Purim uniquley Persian, delicious, and fun.
Celebrate the fun-filled Jewish holiday of Purim with Hershel, a blind boy who wants to help his mother make hamantashen cakes. Hershel learns that he can see when he closes his eyes. Author’s Note.
Purim is coming, and Raya is disappointed that she isn't old enough to be in the play like her older brother, and that her mother hasn't made her costume yet. Her grandmother, Maman joon, makes traditional cookies with Raya and lets her dress up in special scarves she brought with her from Iran. Raya has the idea to put on a play in their home, and that's just what they do, complete with costumes and cookies.
Back matter includes "A Note to Families" about the Purim story and the history of Jews in Persia (now Iran), and how many Jewish people left Iran during the "great unrest" in 1979.
