The Missing Menorah Janie-Sue Wertheim

How do we stand for truth winsomely in a world where everything is questioned? As fifth grader Danny discovers, it takes courage and understanding who God created him to be. A writing assignment given to Danny stirs up deep questions about how his family celebrate both Christmas and Hanukkah. His classmates tease him because they don't understand the reason for both celebrations but one of those classmates later has distressing news to report and looks for and appreciates the comfort that Danny offers. Through a look at history and the wisdom of his family, Danny comes to be able to explain things and be a friend.
