Rating:  - Wonderful new insight
For anyone who is looking for a new insight into their seders, this is what you need. The The Family Participation Haggadah "A Different Night" is just perfect and this is a great leader's guide. I am orthodox and after years of hearing people just trying to "get through it", I've recommended this Haggadah and everyone's had the same response: "Just terrific!"
You will have new material for years to come!!
Rating:  - Plain Jane Supplement
Though I was very impressed with the Haggadah A DIFFERENT NIGHT, its companion Leader's Guide leaves you wanting more. There are more additions, exploitations, and stimuli than you could ever get through in a single night, and probably several years of Sederim. Probably the best chapter was the one which had several quotes about freedom (some of which could be found in the Haggadah proper), but it would be difficult to work much of that into the Seder itself. Another valuable portion was the Halakhic minimums of the Seder (though for a Haggadah that prides itself on exposition, publishing the minimum of anything seems a little absurd), though it only listed those minimums. No attempt was made to expound on WHY they are the minimums. Indeed, there was little to no discussion of the legal requirements of anything in the Seder, somewhat of a disappointment to me. In any case, for the person who likes to have it all, this and the Haggadah will certainly give it to you. Just don't say I didn't warn you when you get information overload.
Rating: - Be a reluctant leader no more!
My children have long been too old for this Hagaddah (A Different Night), but the Leader's Guide is a terrific tool no matter what Hagaddah you use. Excellent suggestions on how to be a good Seder leader, lots of background information, great suggestions to liven up your Seder, readings you can insert. Its just a treasure of useful stuff. People might actually have FUN at your Seder, and learn something too! I've been leading large Seders (30+ people) for friends and family for 10 years now. The Leaders's Guide for A Different Night is going to make this year's Seder different from all other Seders (OK, OK, no groans). But seriously, if you are leading your first Seder or have been doing it for years, this is a valuable addition to your library.
Rating: - helps you plan a fantastic seder
The Family Participationhaggadah is full of ideas to enhance your seder. Too full, actually. The leader's guides really holds your hand and helps you decide what to include and what to skip. It helps you analyze what parts of the seder are crucial for you to feel that you've had a proper seder and what are the ones you all could do without. It pays special attention to children's needs. Bravo.
