Synopsis

Tatia knows she should follow her late mother's advice and stay away from Grandma Chickenlegs - a fearsome old Baba Yaga. But when her stepmother orders her to visit the old witch, how can Tatia refuse? She sets out, armed only with a clean handkerchief, a sweet nature and her dear doll Drooga... and proves that if friends stick together they can win through!

A beautifully illustrated retelling of the classic Baba Yaga story' London Parents' Guide 'The poetry of the test is perfectly in tune with colourful pictures' Guardian
