The Passover Princesses

Perfect for readers of historical fiction, fans of feminist retellings, and Jews of all ages-rediscover the Passover story through the eyes of its most influential women.

Armed with a staff carved from a sacred tree and a heart full of resolve, Moshe will one day confront the king of Egypt and demand freedom for the nation of Israel. But what actually set this great quest into motion?

Inspired by conversations with their young daughter, husband-wife team Jake and Ashley Sauls created The Passover Princesses in hopes of illuminating the pivotal roles of the five women who paved the way for the greatest prophet who ever lived-and in doing so, helped shape the destiny of a nation. From the courageous midwives who defied Pharaoh's decree; to the strength and wisdom of the mothers who nurtured his upbringing; from his sister Miriam, who braved rough waters to protect him during his earliest days; to his wife Tzipporah, whose fierce love inspired him until the very end.

Poetically rendered and rich in historical detail this captivating retelling of the Jewish Exodus from Egypt offers readers a fresh perspective on the enduring power of storytelling and its crucial role in our collective journey toward freedom.
