A retelling of a traditional Eritrean tale in which a young goatherd disobeys his father by trading away the board game that was supposed to keep him out of trouble.

Young Esther has earned a special gragger (whirling noisemaker) by delivering charitable gifts on Purim, a Jewish holiday based on the story of Queen Esther. Now she is ready to carry her gragger in the festive Purim parade! Like the legendary Queen, Esther displays courage and wit when an older bully tries to steal her gragger. -- from Amazon.
