Child Magazine calls it "a sensitive account of how to observe both holidays while preserving the integrity of each." The book's message, for the interfaith child and all children, is that families of all religions love their children and their traditions, and the joy of the holidays comes from that love.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Author
I wrote this story over ten years ago to give my (then!) young children the opportunity to see their interfaith family's way of life positively represented in a book geared to their age and interests. As two high-school-aged kids, they still love everything about Hanukkah AND Christmas. I hope you'll share the book with the young children in your life.

Great introduction for young kids on being of two religions,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hanukkah and Christmas at My House (Paperback)
This book is very good for young children of an interfaith family. It explains it in the way of the mother being Jewish and the father being Catholic. It shows the excitement that each parent had growing up and facts on each religion. It gives good explanations of Christmas and Hannukah - but beware, if you are not that religious and are looking for something very generic like about opening presents, it is not like that. It goes into short explanations of the Maccabees and of Mary and Joseph. Overall - a good start to explaining to kids and having respect and knowledge of both religions.
