Description

In this heartwarming chapter book, Rachel celebrates Purim—and learns the joy of sharing the stage.
Rachel is so excited about Purim, and she's especially excited to star in her Hebrew school's Purim spiel! She'll get to dress up like a queen and put on a play in front of everyone.
But when her teacher announces the cast, Rachel doesn't get the leading role of Queen Esther—her best friend Maya does! Rachel has to learn how to step aside and let someone else be the star of the show in this laugh-out-loud story about friendship.
