Featured Book: Babushka Baba Yaga by Patricia Polacco. Baba Yaga is usually known as a fearsome character in Russian folklore who kidnaps children and lives deep in the forest in a house on chicken legs– but in this story, she’s actually just a lonely old woman who longs for a grandchild to love! Get excited for our upcoming The World of Russian Fairy Tales exhibition with this tender new take on an old favorite.
