“This book shows some alligators celebrating Passover. It shows how humans often celebrate it with alligators instead. It takes place in a state in the U.S. that alligators are often found in.” — Jill Harris
AJL Newsletter
“Here is a rhyming Passover board book with a funny story that features Jewish alligators in Florida. The seder rituals are highlighted as a large family of alligators celebrates Passover in the swampy Everglades. They apparently live in a regular house, wear kippot or pearl necklaces and look under their fine furniture for chametz before the seder begins. They also enjoy gefilte fish, of course. Kids will get a kick out of the rhymes and the silliness.” — Lisa Silverman, Library Director, Burton Sperber Jewish Community Library, Los Angeles, CA

“Florida alligators celebrate the Passover Seder in the Everglades with customary foods and the Four Questions. The watercolor artwork is quite attractive, but one wonders why these are alligators and not people, even though they wear little yarmulkes. This may work best with families already familiar with Passover practices.” — BayViews

“A cheerful introduction to the holiday for youngsters, both reptile and human.” — Kirkus Review
