I would like to recommend two Purim resources: *Enjoying the Book of Esther: The Bible in Rhyme <http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IXOBDMY>* contains both the full book of Esther as well as a summary written in rhyming couplets. Kathie Pinchuck, Past Chair, Sydney Taylor Book Award Committee wrote "The Book of Esther is a solid purchase for Jewish libraries".
I have also just published a kindle book *Family Preparations for the Jewish Holidays: Purim <http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AEL6V7K>. *The book contains a variety of ways to prepare for Purim. There are suggestions for Purim carnivals, costumes, mishloach manot, as well as ways to make the Purim meal memorable. While much of the book gives ideas to parents, the junior high and high school crowd will find it useful for help in creating a Purim carnival or doing a mishloach manot campaign.
