GRANDMA CHICKENLEGS by Ger Mccaughrean
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 good story can never be retold often enough, particularly when the author is Geraldine McCaughrean..drawings full of gruesome detail will make this a firm favourite with four-to eight-year-olds' Sunday Telegraph 'For those that like their fairy tales dark and exciting, Grandma Chickenlegs...is the answer. 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
