In this special Passover story, Larnel Moore, a young African-American boy, and Mrs. Katz, an elderly Jewish woman, develop an unusual friendship through their mutual concern for an abandoned cat named Tush. Together they explore the common themes of suffering and triumph in each of their cultures.

"Polacco's bright double-spread watercolor paintings are exuberant...an elemental picture of human family."-- "Booklist."
