The Saturday Secret

Paperback (Alef Design Group Oct. 1, 1999)
A funny and moving story of what happens when a boy's mother remarries a more observant man.

Jason Siegel thinks his stepfather's new religious observances have gone far enough. First only kosher food at home. Then he is forced to wear a kippah (yarmulke). Now now baseball games on Shabbat!

Jason is determined to play ball-no matter what. But when his plan backfires, Jason finds himself entangled in a situation that hurts his teammate's feelings and jeopardizes his relationship with his mother and stepfather.

Jason's 'Saturday Secret' brings him face to face with his stepfather for a touching reconciliation that helps Jason understand responsibility, truthfulness and the meaning of Jewish observance.
