As her family sits down to make masks, a young girl knows it's time for Purim, the holiday that celebrates how Queen Esther saved the Jewish people. It's time for making hamantaschen, pastries filled with poppy seeds and honey. Time to place these pastries in homemade decorated gift baskets with candy and fruit. Time for the Purim carnival, for playing games and watching the Purim parade. And, time to put on their new costumes and masks.

This year the the girl wonders why they wear masks on Purim, and discovers the story behind the masks.
