A Different Kind of Passover

Linda Leopold Strauss

Jessica usually spends Passover with her grandparents, but this year her grandfather is sick and has recently left the hospital. Because he cannot lead the seder in the usual way, the holiday at her grandparents' home changes. Jessica and her family look for a way to include him so that he can still take part in the seder. The story centers on a family adapting its Passover observance around a grandfather's illness.
