Description

Help the children find the afikoman during their seder! It's a rambunctious Passover hide-and-seek story for Jewish fans of Where's Waldo and The Gingerbread Man. This lively, funny picture book brings to life the Passover tradition of searching for the afikoman-literally. When the mischievous piece of matzoh runs and hides during the seder, all the kids in the family (and even the pet dog!) go hunting for it, through every room in the house. Readers can join the hunt and find the sneaky afikoman in each bright and busy scene while enjoying the playful rhyming text. And they're in for a surprise ending that's as delightful as this favorite part of Passover.
