"This 'Gingerbread Boy' variant features an abundance of Yiddish phrases, a real sense of community chaos, and, as in its parallel tale, a sassy protagonist with a permanent grin."

Publisher's Notes
The classic tale of the "Gingerbread Man" is given a Judaic twist when the matzo ball boy jumps from the hot pot and takes off running with bubbe, her son the rabbi, and the fox hot on the chase to bring him back home in time for their Passover seder.

Saying It Out Loud
by Joan Abelove
More than anything, Mindy longs to be told the truth. From the doctors, from her father. Mom isn't going to get better, she isn't going to leave the white room in the hospital ever again, isn't going to come home to fill the candy bowl with its magical stash of M&M's. But it's the silence, the avoidance and denial, that hurts Mindy the most. The year is 1961 -- clearly evoked in the music and movies (there is a powerful scene involving Spartacus). Mindy's father has absented himself emotionally from her adolescence, after stating, in his absolute way, that she will date no one who's not Jewish. Facing the death of her mother from a brain tumor, Mindy feels like an orphan, and, like her mother, excluded from life -- until friends get her laughing again, until she can see her mother and their relationship squarely and lovingly. This is a book that, though dark at its center, casts light on all sides, with extraordinary tenderness.
