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.Richard Ho loves winter, partly because it's the season of Chanukah. He is the author of critically acclaimed books for children, including The Lost Package, Two New Years, and more. He has never made a golem, but he can spin a mean dreidel.
Carmel Ben-Ami was born in the Netherlands and raised in Israel. In 2014, she graduated with honors from Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, Jerusalem. She currently resides in Amsterdam and works as an illustrator and animator.Thanks for subscribing!
