On the first night of Hanukkah, Rabbi Judah has too much to do and too little time to do it. Before the rabbi leaves to visit the emperor, he tells his housemaid Basha that she can ask the golem to help. While the golem makes latkes, Basha decides to visit a friend. Basha is having so much fun with her friend, she doesnât realize that latkes are pouring out of the rabbiâs house, sending people running! Will Rabbi Judah come up with a solution to control the golem before itâs too late? Illustrated with lively acrylic on wood, the book also includes an Authorâs Note about the taleâs origins.
