Latkes & Lefse

Siblings Josh, Nora, and Jacob love both Hanukkah and Christmas, latkes and lefse…
Which food will they choose to bring to their school's holiday feast on Friday?

"This Friday, we're celebrating all the fall and winter holidays with a holiday feast," says Principal C. Josh, Nora, and Jacob are so excited! Each family is allowed to bring one food that represents their culture. But the siblings are worried—their family has two very different, very favorite holiday foods they want to bring. Can they cook up a feast-tastic plan to mash up their family's cultures and truly represent who they are?
