Grandmother Azar tells stories from the Holy Koran (sic) but Grandmother Maria tells stories from the Holy Bible. Sarah loves these tales but wonders how they can both be true. ‘Sarah’s Two Nativities’ is light-hearted picture book about family, acceptance and intercultural understanding. This book provokes discussion for families of more than one faith.
