More than a Purim holiday story, The Mitzvah Girl reinforces the values of charity and kindness... - making it appropriate reading for any time of the year. The excitement of Purim day is felt in this delightful story, as we share in the Megilla reading, preparation of mishloach manot, and Shira’s love for her special Queen Esther costume and gold crown. More than a Purim holiday story, The Mitzvah Girl also reinforces the values of charity and kindness - making it appropriate reading for any time of the year.
