Summary

"The Little Mixer" by Lillian Nicholson Shearon is a heartwarming story about Hannah, a young Jewish girl, navigating the festive season in the early 1900s. As Christmas celebrations swirl around her with her Christian friends, Virginia and Nellie, Hannah feels a pang of longing to partake in the fun, especially the allure of Santa Claus and presents. Her innocent desire for belonging leads her friends to attempt what they believe will bring Santa her way, highlighting the misunderstandings that can occur when different cultures meet. It all comes to light when Hannah's father discovers the plans in motions, and he finds a special way to include her in the Christmas cheer, ultimately, leading to shared joy and understanding during the holiday.
