About the Book
Kai, struggling with his bubbe in the hospital, believes a Golem is causing his troubles, but after doing a mitzvah, he befriends the creature and life starts to improve.
Book Synopsis
Rain in the morning makes Kai say, "That's not what I want!" After school, he wants to read stories with Bubbe, but she isn't there. "That's not what I want!" says Kai. Maybe, he thinks, there's a creature that makes bad things happen. Could it be a Golem, big and scary? But maybe things aren't so bad if you look at them in a different way...
Review Quotes
"Encourages discussions about emotions, resilience, and how imagination can help reframe difficult experiences." --Association of Jewish Libraries
-- (11/17/2025 12:00:00 AM)"Children will recognize themselves in Kai. Their emotions may be overwhelming, but circumstances can be improved by helping others and by looking at events in a more positive light. The sweet color illustrations, including that of the furry, orange golem, enhance the story and the characters."--Jewish Book Council
