Debbie, Please share your answers with the list. If you of all people don't know what to say, then this is obviously a major problem which he probably shares with many other children. I hope writers and publishers take note. I can think of a few titles you've probably already considered: Chanukkah Cat, About the B.nai Bagels, King of Mulberry Street, The Boy from Seville.
What did this boy read or have read to him before he got to third grade? I fear that his problem may not be solved by librarians alone, but I would want to talk with the parents and suggest they examine their priorities and perhaps even reconsider their choice to live iso far away from the Jewish community.
