In the middle of her family’s preparation for the festival of lights, Trisha visits her closest neighbours, expecting to find them decorating their house for Christmas. Instead they are all bedridden with scarlet fever.
Trisha’s family is one of the few who has been spared from the epidemic. It is difficult for them to enjoy their Hanukkah feast when they know that their neighbours won’t be able to celebrate their holiday.
Then Grampa has an inspiration: they will cut down trees, decorate them, and secretly deliver them to the neighbours, “But what can we decorate them with?” Babushka asks.
Although it is a sacrifice, Trisha realizes that Grampa’s carved animals are the perfect answer. Soon her living room is filled with trees — but that is only the first miracle of many during an incredible holiday season…
