Everybody’s Book: The Story of the Sarajevo Haggadah<\/em>
\nby Linda Leopold Strauss (Author) and Tim Smart (Illustrator)
\n@ Amazon<\/a> | Bookshop<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> This true story begins long ago in Spain, where a bride and groom are gifted a hand-painted haggadah. It is used at many Passover seders until the Spanish Inquisition when the family escapes. The haggadah survived for centuries in different countries. Scholars declared it a treasure. To protect it from the Nazis, a curator smuggled it out of a Sarajevo museum and hid it in a village mosque. On Passover of 1995, with bombs exploding overhead, the Bosnian president brought out the book from an underground vault to show the world that it was safe. The Sarajevo Haggadah has become a symbol of people of many faiths and cultures working together. <\/p>\n
