Get Out Your Magnifying Glasses, It's Time to Do Some Sleuthing!

Come to our 17th St Store to enjoy an in-person storytime with AMALIA HOFFMAN! She'll be reading from her new picture book, Afikotective! Join a sweet little bear as he uses his invention to sniff out the hidden afikomen in time for the Passover seder!

In Afikotective, a family of bears is getting ready for the Passover seder, preparing all the items for the seder plate. When the time comes in the seder for hiding the afikomen, Grandma breaks the middle matzah into two pieces. She hides the bigger piece, the afikomen, that the kids will eagerly search for later in the seder. It's a good thing one little bear has turned his toy elephant into an Afiko-Sniffer! The invention sniffs out apples in a bowl, eggs in the fridge, and horseradish in the pantry, but can it help find the afikomen?
