And there’s a strange light in the woods behind the house, and some huge glowing egg-shaped objects appear at night.

Ben turns to Grandpa for help, and together the two of them hatch a plan to save the world – and Ben’s bar mitzvah. This zany and fun story of family, adventure and imagination is also about gaining confidence and growing up. Ben learns courage and builds belief in himself as a member of his family and the wider community.
