Summary: Chopski marries Klopski
Comment: This 1996 tale of a troublesome spirit that takes hold of a young woman had some help from The Dybbuk, the 1918 play of S. Ansky.

The Russian ethnographer had traveled from 1912 to 1914 collecting the Jewish legends, folktales, proverbs, songs and music on which he based his work. Those legends and folktales were based on the 17th century appearance of a literary dybbuk, who in turn sprang from early Jewish folklore.

In this case, the idea and illustrations are better than the text, which is strained in places. But it's a cute, not-so-terrifying way to introduce children to the dybbuk legend. Alyssa A. Lappen
