Description

This exciting graphic novel presents a series of puzzling mystical Jewish stories weaving together a daring adventure tale, following siblings Rose and Ben as they search for their missing grandparents, aided only by a mysterious book, a lantern, and their wits. The midrash stories they find - about the flying Ziz, the giant Og, the gatekeeper at a maze, and a treasure-seeker who lives in a mushroom hut - provide insights into defeating the creepy sorceress scheming to take the book. As the mystery deepens, the siblings must reunite with their grandparents and learn why they have inherited the responsibility to protect the book - and the Jewish people.
