American Golem: The New World Adventures of an Old World Mud Monster

Everything here is big,

and crowded,

and strange,

and scary!

He creates a golem, an old-country mud monster, to protect him from the kids next door. But the golem was meant for old-world fears, and things are different here in the New World.

Now what will his golem do, with no one to protect?
