Atara loves to wear her crown – to the library, to the dentist, even to her swim lessons. It gives her confidence, and shows the world that she is a girl, not a boy, like everyone thought at first. But when Atara reads the story of Queen Esther, on the Jewish holiday of Purim – she realises that you don’t need a costume to express who you really are…

Reviews

Kirkus Reviews
A delightfully inclusive Purim tale.
Rabbi Mike Moskowitz, Scholar in Residence for Trans and Queer Jewish Studies at Congregation Beit Simchat Torah
Atara is clothed with strength and splendor; she looks to the future with joy. Like the Purim story itself, Atara reveals her powerful truth of self worth and holy pride to a world that is worthy of accepting her with love.
Lisa Stanton (Jewish Communal Professional and Parent Advocate for Trans Youth) and Maya Stanton (Jewish Trans Rights Activist)
Groundbreaking. A powerful reminder that true freedom comes from embracing our true identities. Highly recommended for families, schools and communities
