A laugh-out-loud interfaith holiday story celebrating Jewish joy, friendship, and the beauty of every tradition!
Enjoy this heartwarming and hilarious holiday picture book as Jewish, bi-racial Oliver Overstreet teaches Santa that Christmas and Hanukkah are not related--at all!
Oy, Santa! shines as a festive story that celebrates Jewish pride and tradition, sprinkled with laughter, friendship, and inclusion. With a friendly nod to Muslims who also don't celebrate Christmas, this book is perfect for families, classrooms, and libraries seeking a fun, timely story about respecting differences and building bridges between traditions.
Starred Review - School Library Journal

Reader Praise:
The holiday book we didn't know we needed.
Had me smiling throughout. Great for kids as well as adults.
Perfect for those celebrating either (or both) holidays.
A fun read. I wish I had this book as a youngster.
I read this book and instantly ordered multiple copies to give as gifts to friends.
Ideal for:
- Interfaith families building shared holiday traditions of menorahs and mistletoe
- Grandparents looking for a gift to entertain and spark conversation
- Teachers and librarians promoting diversity and empathy (Teacher Guide available)
- Anyone who believes the holidays are brighter when every tradition shines
Bring home a story that celebrates connection, kindness, and the light of every tradition this holiday season. Ollie would like that.
