- The Journey Continues, The Ma'yan Passover Haggadah
- This is a feminist-oriented Haggadah, based on the annual seders sponsored by
Ma�yan in New York City. There is extensive use of transliteration
throughout. Prayers in Hebrew are given in both traditional language (male
gender) and also in the feminine case. The biographies of important Jewish
women at the back of the book provide an excellent resource for discussion.

- A Night of Questions: A Passover Haggadah
- This is an outstanding Haggadah for people with a basic understanding of the
traditional seder. Simple prayers are offered in Hebrew in both traditional
language (male gender) and in gender neutral Hebrew. Transliteration is
offered for the most “popular” sections like the basic blessings, the four
questions and all the traditional songs. While this is not a “feminist ”
haggadah, Miriam is well represented with the inclusion of Debby Friedman�s
Miriam�s song and a ceremony for the use of “Miriam�s Cup.”

BOOKS FOR CHILDREN:
- Let My Babies Go! A Passover Story
- The Rugrats enact the story of Passover in this delightful book based on the
television series. The illustrations will delight the entire family and
young children will especially enjoy the illustrations of the ten plagues.
And who will be able to forget that heartfelt plea, “Let my babies go!”
Highly recommended.
