It’s passover and Hannah’s not looking forward to the traditions of her Jewish heritage. The traditional seder meal is being served and her relatives drone on and on about the past. Apparently Hannah doesn’t understand the importance of remembering the past. Little does she know she’s about to partake in a haunting journey through the to the past! Will she remember?
The story really brings out what it might have been like to live during the German Holocaust. Definately a good introduction into the Holocaust period. I give it a five star review.
