About the Book

It is the eve of Purim and a grandmother tells her granddaughter how she heard the story from their Rabbi. As the Rabbi begins the story of how Queen Esther saved her people from a plot to destroy them, he is interrupted by soldiers who have come to arrest him. The grandmother, then a child, begs time for the rabbi to finish the story, and it is granted.
