Oy, Santa!: Or, There's a Latke to Learn about Hanukkah
Oliver Overstreet tries to get Santa to understand how special Hanukkah is.

Even though Santa knows some things—like Oliver's friend Ibrahim also doesn't celebrate Christmas—Oliver loses patience when Santa doesn't fully appreciate Hanukkah customs. Especially latkes! Helping people understand Jewish traditions is a never-ending job!

This book is for readers of all faiths and responds to the mistaken idea that Jewish children are somehow disadvantaged by not celebrating Christmas. Told through email correspondence, Oy, Santa! is a story about identity, perseverance, and the importance of sharing one's traditions in a kind way.

"Clever, knowing, and unique in its enthusiasm for the integrity of the holiday..."—Publishers Weekly
