1. Illustrated Megillat Esther With Clear Case

At the heart of Purim lies the story of Queen Esther and how she saved the Jews from the evil schemes of Haman. Megillat Esther, the Book of Esther, is read publicly twice during the holiday. Since it is important to hear all of the words as they are read, many people take their own copy of the megillah with them to the synagogue so that they can follow along as it's chanted aloud. This superb paper scroll contains the complete text of the Book of Esther, illustrated with colorful designs, along with the blessings associated with its reading. An easy-to-carry plastic cylinder will keep this scroll safe, secure, and convenient.

4. Colorful Wooden Purim Grogger (Noisemaker) With Jerusalem Design
