P Is for Passover

Tanya Lee Stone. Price Stern Sloan, $4.99 (24pp) ISBN 978-0-8431-0238-3

Another paperback Holiday Alphabet Book, P Is for Passover by Tanya Lee Stone, illus. by Margeaux Lucas, features die-cut pages shaped to accentuate the cover art, an otherwise unexceptional rendering of a fancy goblet, egg, matzoh, etc., on a seder plate. The text pairs a rhyming stanza with each letter of the alphabet. Sample: ""M is for matzah/ Flat bread made of wheat/ Quickly baked before fleeing/ It's crispy to eat!""
