Zoe mostly has it good. Her parents are kind, her brother Simon isn't half bad, and her dog Ella is amazing. She loves school, and she has great friends. But Zoe thinks her life is boring -- nothing ever changes. She will always need a wheelchair, and her parents will always want to protect her -- keeping her from having a real adventure! When Zoe learns about the diverse cultures of her friends at school, she starts thinking of her own life differently. While celebrating the vibrant holiday traditions of Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Divali, and Eid, she realizes that adventures can arrive in weird and wonderful ways. And some adventures can be hairy! When Zoe finds she needs to take charge for the first time, will she succeed? Are adventures really that great? Zoe's Extraordinary Holiday Adventures celebrates diversity, strength, and the ties that bind people who seem different.
