Too Many Golems

Award-winning author Jane Yolen brings us a delightfully humorous tale inspired by Jewish folklore of a well-intentioned but mischievous boy who accidentally summons ten golems.

The rabbi's son, Abi, has a habit of getting in trouble. It's not on purpose, and usually, they're harmless accidents. But this time, Abi has stolen a scroll from the synagogue-to practice his Hebrew!-and is not ready for what, or rather, who will show up at his front door as a result.

The golems Abi summons may look monstrous, but we soon learn they are only there to help! With beloved author Jane Yolen's signature wit and delightful illustrations by Maya Shleifer, “Too Many Golems” conveys the unexpected joy of magical accidents and the importance of being a good neighbor to all.
