Reviews

"Nonna is the perfect loving grandmother that everyone would hope to have, and Rachel's parents are beautifully sensitive to her emotional needs. Lovely and softly colorful stylized paintings perfectly illustrate the story."
AJL Newsletter
"References to King Antiochus, panettone, lasagna, and latkes are seamlessly woven into the story, and young readers will readily absorb new information along with affirmations of tolerance and acceptance. Illustrations in muted colors create a cozy feel and help make this a lovely addition to the holiday canon."
Booklist
"…a nicely told tale of a family living comfortably with different religions and traditions."
