An irresistibly adorable mouse tries to find her Passover plate before sundown when the Seder begins in this colorful Jewish holiday story.

Everything looks great-- but her special Seder plate is missing! n nSearching through her tiny house turns up nothing, so Pippa ventures out to ask her neighbors if they can help.
