In this heartfelt children's story, a Jewish father discovers unexpected joy in Christmas traditions. When the warm glow of the menorah inspires him, he embraces the holiday season with open arms and boundless enthusiasm.

From climbing onto the roof to hang decorations, to cutting down (somewhat lopsided) Christmas trees, to creating oversized cookies for Santa, Dad throws himself into every festive activity. His daughters watch with delight as their home transforms and their father earns his affectionate nickname: "Mr. Christmas."

Through simple, engaging prose and charming illustrations, this story explores how families can honor their heritage while creating their own unique traditions. As Dad reminds us, "It's not just about the lights or the tree. It's about us being together and creating memories."

Perfect for families who celebrate multiple traditions or anyone who appreciates the universal language of celebration, My Dad is Jewish, but He Loves Christmas! reminds young readers that sharing light and making memories with loved ones transcends any single holiday tradition.

This book is a touching celebration of family bonds, cultural blending, and the joy of togetherness during the holiday season.

Grigerman, Sophia Helen: -

Sophia Helen Grigerman is an eleven-year-old storyteller from Shoreline, Washington, whose imagination has been flourishing since before she could write. Living just outside Seattle with her parents, younger sister, and beloved dog, Sophia finds inspiration in the Pacific Northwest's natural beauty. When not crafting stories, Sophia expresses herself through artwork, dance, and soccer. As an active member of a local synagogue, Sophia is currently learning Hebrew and studying for her Bat Mitzvah, deepening her connection to her heritage and community. Sophia's journey as a writer began with spoken tales as a toddler and evolved into drawings once she could hold a pen and, eventually, grew to include written narratives. This book represents the latest chapter in her lifelong love of storytelling.

Lucy Shin is an illustrator and concept artist who focuses on character design.
