It was an unusual friendship: 11-year-old Michael Devlin, an Irish Catholic from Brooklyn, and Judah Hirsch, a rabbi and refugee from Prague, meet during a swirling blizzard on a Saturday morning. For Michael, Hirsch is an extraordinary window to ancient times and foreign lands; for the Rabbi, Michael is an encyclopedia of cultural knowledge of his new land. In baseball, the two find a common love, but when some anti-Semitic hoodlums threaten them with virulence, the two must look for a miracle...in a most unlikely place.
"A charming and affecting story -- part fanciful tale and all message". -- Miami Herald
"Hamill, in this beautifully woven tale, captures perfectly the daily working-class world of postwar Brooklyn...he examines with a cool head and a big heart the vulnerabilities and inevitable oneness of humankind". -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
