But when both sets of doting grandparents arrive, theyre swept up in the joyful preparations that unite this extended family. "The Golds made latkes and applesauce," Breskin Zalben writes; "the Feathers made sweet-potato pudding and turkey." Phuongs glowing scenes of domestic togetherness take readers throughout the cozy house as the families light the menorah, then the Christmas tree, and share the tales and treats of both holidays. Theres no December dilemma in this comfortable-feeling work, just "a world that felt good, safe, and full of love." Characters are portrayed with various skin tones. An activity, recipe, and authors note conclude. —Publishers Weekly A unique look into a dual celebration of Christmas and Chanukah, which will occur on the same day in 2024.
