"Adhering strictly to the unflinching candour of the folk tale... The Golem of Old Prague is a beautiful and unfortunately timely book."
Times Educational Supplement

A Childrenís Classic. Illustrated by Brian Simons.

Times were dangerous for the Jews of Old Prague. Rabbi Loeb needed help to save people from his enemies. Out of mud he fashioned a Golem, a creature of great strength who could perform impossible tasks, but could also cause disaster if he got out of control. The Golem tales are as mysteriously eerie as the streets were in the old Prague ghetto, but the realism of the humour gives a reassuring earthiness.
