Dear Safranim,
New Book Announcement: *Pass Over to Freedom: 15 Jewish Tales for Passover*an ebook by Libi Astaire The Passover Seder is a time when Jewish families around the world gather together to retell the story of the Jewish People’s passage from slavery in Egypt to freedom. It is also a time when we share stories about our Sages, such as the 15 stories in this book – one story for each step in the Seder - which have been culled from the vast repository of Chassidic and other traditional Jewish stories pertaining to the Passover holiday and the Haggadah. In *Pass Over to Freedom: 15 Jewish Tales for Passover, *join Rabbi Shmelke of Nikolsburg, the Ohev Yisrael, the Gerrer Rebbe, the Beis Halevi, the Chofetz Chaim and others on this journey to discover why the night of the Passover Seder really is different from all other nights. Libi Astaire is the author of the Ezra Melamed Mystery Series, a Jewish historical mystery series set in Regency England. The first book in the series, *The Disappearing Dowry*, received a 2010 Sydney Taylor Notable Book Award. The second volume, *The Ruby Spy Ring*, was published in 2011. She is also the author of *Terra Incognita*, a novel about modern-day descendants of Spain’s crypto-Jews.
