The Trees of the Dancing
Goats
by Patricia Polacco
As the main character’s family enjoys their
Hanukkah preparations, they discover
their Christian neighbors are ill at Christmas time. The family cuts a tree and decorates it for them, and the neighbors thank
them with a carved menorah. A feel-good
story to introduce your child to how other
families celebrate the holidays.
Santa Claus Is Green!
by Alison Inches
In the spirit of Christmas giving, Santa shows kids how to give to others while giving back to the Earth. Simple things like turning the tree
lights off during the day and before bedtime, wrapping gifts in newspaper, and making decorations and presents for one another rather
than buying new.
Printed on 100% post-consumer waste recycled paper, this silly story
is full of fun tips and ideas on how kids and families can celebrate a
green Christmas.
