A prolific master storyteller presents another collection of narratives that span east and west and leap back and forth in time.

The title story takes place in the Warsaw ghetto and bears witness to the courage and defiance of a very young hero.

Other tales take place in diverse locales, as menacing as the streets of Prague and as awesome as the splendid majesty of King Solomon's palace.

Along the way is a world of excitement and adventure. Exquisitely detailed and evocative drawings by Bryna Waldman make this book and the following two companions, books to treasure. (Companions: The Precious Little Spicebox and The Glass Blower of Venice) Pub 1999.
