I really liked this book. It is magical and encourages your imagination to flourish and open up to the possibilities of the impossible.

2019 Believathon read

Cute story with a different imagining for the Baba Yaga tale, but I liked it. I would like to see more of this story unfold.

And a note on the hardcover-the endpages are raised like chicken flesh, so fun and unexpected.

A beautiful, magical and gentle story about friendship, dreams, loss of a beloved person and what's important in life.

While I did enjoy the weaving of the tale.......god did I dislike Marinka.

The whole way through pretty much.
