Publisher Description

When a family's menorah accidentally breaks, a golem comes to life to save Chanukah in this heartwarming and fun-filled modern Jewish picture book.

As Chanukah draws near, Jewish children around the neighborhood light candles and turn lumps of clay into twirling dreidels—except for one boy, who molds his clay into a living, breathing creature...a golem!

But, with his bulky body and playful curiosity, this clumsy golem spreads more trouble than joy. He eats all the festive treats, and somersaults around the house until…oh no! He breaks the family’s menorah!

As night falls, the boy and his golem must work together to repair the menorah, and save Chanukah.

Delight in this modern Jewish fable by award-winning author Richard Ho, and with gorgeous art by Carmel Ben-Ami, perfect for fans of You're My Little Latke and Hannukah Bear.
