Sweet, lovely Vasilisa lives with her jealous stepmother and stepsisters on the edge of a dark forest inhabited by the evil witch Baba Yaga. One night the stepmother sends Vasilisa to visit Baba Yaga, an errand from which the gentle girl has little chance of returning alive.

I love folklore and fairy tales so I really enjoyed discovering this one and, i really enjoyed it. Its short but I thought it had some interesting characters and I like that it also had some similarities to Cinderella as well. I did listen to the audiobook so it was a pretty easy listen. #folklore #fairytales

This is a terrific retelling of the classic Russian fairy tale. Vasilisa is an appealing and brave protagonist, and the artwork by Kinuko Y. Craft is stunning. #fairytale #bravegirls #childrensbooks
