He knows that Christmas celebrates the birthday of Jesus Christ, and he cannot wait for tomorrow to come - he wants a puppy of his own to play with and love. On Christmas Day, he opens a large box with, yes, a puppy inside. Alex names him Zipper! However, when grandparents come bearing gifts, Zipper bounds out of the open door. Mother and Alex then begin a neighborhood adventure as they search for a runaway dog and meet neighbors with different winter holiday celebrations and traditions: the Hindu Diwali, the Jewish Hanukkah, the Latinx Las Posadas and the African-American Kwanzaa. Alex then returns home for a Christmas feast, happy with his new canine companion and the knowledge that his neighborhood is filled with amazing people who are more alike than different.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Kelly Darmofal takes her readers on an unexpected Christmas journey that leads her readers to discover the beauty of our diverse winter holidays!\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eHolidays with a Tail: A Tale of Winter Celebrations\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eis a book to read aloud to all!\" -- Debbie McIntyre, Principal of Jefferson Elementary School\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"With warmth and cheer, Darmofal captures Christmas Day in Holidays with a Tail.
