QUEEN ESTHER
In one of the Old Testament's classic sagas, a beautiful Jewish orphan named Esther marries a powerful King of Persia. But this is no simple Cinderella story. For the King's evil advisor Haman has plotted personal revenge on Esther's cousin Mordecai-and death to all Jews of the kingdom. Queen Esther bravely plans revenge of her own against the wicked Haman, saving her cousin-and her people-from impending massacre. To this day, her heroism is celebrated annually in the Feast of Purim.
Children and parents everywhere can learn an invaluable lesson from this compelling triumph of good and bravery over evil and prejudice.
