Fleegl falls in love with the beautiful music floating past the family nest on the windowsill of the Beit Torah Synagogue. Being a talented mockingbird, Fleegl listens carefully and soon can sing all the music that the choir is practicing for Rosh Hashana. Fleegl yearns to join the choir, but what will Cantor Zingen do when he finds out his new mystery choir member is a bird?

Lilah, a plucky tree frog, decides she must leave her tropical rainforest and find a safer home. An extraordinary journey takes her far away from the lush forest and hungry snakes. To her amazement, at the end of her travels, Lilah finds herself right in the middle of Bubby’s Passover seder table. She uses her jungle survival skills to scavenge food without being noticed as the seder proceeds. After drinking from the vase of daffodils, Lilah hides under some lettuce as she listens to the Kiddush and the Four Questions. Her increasing curiosity leads to a much too-close encounter with one of the human guests, and possible catastrophe. Will the seder ground to a halt? Perhaps Lilah isn’t the only one who can think quickly.
