The pictures . . . have a simple, childlike charm, with circles for peoples heads and wavy lines for their arms. Characters are tan-skinned. Readers may appreciate the spirit of religious harmony . . ." --Kirkus "What could be better than a joyful picture book that celebrates Easter or Passover? A joyful picture book that celebrates both! Sprinkled with the customs and symbols of each holiday, Easter Eggs and Matzo Balls adds a layer of mystery and a bit of magic that will keep readers turning the pages to discover what the children in this blended family will find in the Golden Egg." --Vivian Kirkfield, author of Pippas Passover Plate "A wonderful representation of the love of stepsiblings and blending honored holiday celebrations. The recipes included at the end are sure to help create lasting connections and learning experiences." -Hannah Bruner, author of What Makes a Family? Praise for Latkes for Santa Claus "This charming story has all the ingredients of a sweet and tender perennial holiday classic. With whimsical rhymes, kid-friendly text, and illustrations guaranteed to appeal to little ones, this delicious book combines the traditions of Hanukah and Christmas in a way children, as well as their parents, wont soon forget. Whats more, the latkes and sugar cookie recipes are the icing on the cake. I have twelve nieces and nephews, who will, for sure, find this yummy book among their holiday gifts." --Allia Zobel Nolan, author of What I Like About Me: A Book About Acceptance and Cat Confessions: A Kitty Come Clean Tell All Book "Latkes for Santa Claus is a joyful, engaging read perfect for culturally blended families and delightful for all readers. The playful rhymes will keep kids giggling, and the delicious recipes especially add a wonderful touch for anyone who might want to leave a treat for Santa." --Jess Rinker, author of Gloria Takes a Stand and Send a Girl "Ideal for blended families, but definitely delightful for anyone to read, Laktes for Santa Claus is a clever Hanukkah meets Christmas spin on leaving cookies out for Santa on Christmas Eve. Even if its not Chrismukkah (when Christmas and Hanukkah overlap), this picture book still shows a way for Jewish children living with a non-Jewish step-sibling and/or step-parent how fun it is to share a bit of their Jewish holiday traditions during Christmastime. . . . I enjoyed every page of this charming new picture book because it showed how there is not only room for compromise in every family, but how easily a new tradition can be created bringing everyone closer." --Good Reads with Ronna Long Description To: The Easter Bunny From: Michael Ive always celebrated Easter, but my new stepsister, Anna, celebrates Passover.
