Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Cohn's powerful narrative tells how two children, two families--one Jewish, one Christian--and a community resolve to stand together against the shameful actions that have been happening in their home town. Her story is based on real events that happened in Billings, Montana, in 1993. Farnsworth's beautiful paintings illuminate the message of the power of goodness. Full color.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Live & Let Live
This is a great book.Everyone should read this book.They will learn a lot from it.I will give this book to everyone I know.
Thanks for every one who made this book happened.barb



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a story that lifts up love
"The Christmas Menorahs" witnesses an event that
reveals how an ordinarily silent majority can address
a hate-mongering minority effectively. It can be done!
Story is beautifully told and illustrated. Good for
children as well as adults.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - More than charming
This is a very important book - written for children yet making the story accessible to many adults too. Would that all adults could set the example of the adults in this story.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An important true story
Our kids have turned this into a play, which they have enacted the past three years at Chanukah. It's an important about tolerance fighting hate.

This is an important story for Jewish and non-Jewish children.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Message...
I remember that night in December 1993. As Christians, we displayed the full paged Menorah from the Billings Gazette in our window. It was a message to the skinhead(s) that hatred and bigotry have NO place in Billings, Montana or anywhere else.
