Ezra is a youngster who is devoted to his family and the Torah — but he is no match for the mobs. He goes to the yeshivah — and comes under attack as a stone comes smashing through the window and strikes his teacher.
His flight back home is frightening, blood-curdling — but then his adventure is just beginning.
His beloved mother and her unborn baby need help — and only Ezra can summon it. Back into the streets he must go. His heart is pounding, danger lurks around every corner — but he must go; he must succeed. His loving father knows that two lives are in Ezra’s hands — and he responds like a hero five times his age.
Turn the pages and join the Jews of Aleppo in a thrilling adventure. This is a historical novel for young people, but all ages will enjoy it. A. Shalom, a new ArtScroll author, brings Ezra’s adventure to life. We’ll feel that we are there!
This is a fine adventure story for the whole family. Don’t miss it.
