A Xariah Christmas

By Sasha Dietze

A heartwarming holiday story about courage, inclusion, and the magic of believing in yourself.

When a new student named Eli joins Xariah's class, she's excited to meet someone else who has Cerebral Palsy-just like her But Eli is shy. He walks with a red walker, talks with a stutter, and doesn't want to join the class Christmas play. He's afraid the other kids might laugh at him.

Xariah understands more than anyone how it feels to be nervous or different. So one quiet night, she whispers a wish to Santa. With a sprinkle of Christmas magic, her pink wheelchair transforms into her Super Sleigh-and she helps Eli see in a dream that he's already perfect just the way he is.

The next day, Eli bravely asks for a part in the play. Together, he and Xariah show their classmates-and themselves-that courage shines brighter than any Christmas light.

A Xariah Christmas is a touching story about friendship, inclusion, and the power of believing in yourself. Perfect for bedtime reading, classroom discussions, or holiday storytime, this book reminds every child that no one should ever be left behind.
