The Firebird is a Russian folktale written by Jane Yolen and illustrated by Vladimir Vagin. His enchanting paintings have you focusing not only on the folktale in the middle but the vignettes of ballet in the borders. This classic tale features a a shimmering garden, an evil wizard, a princess in distress and a prince ready to slay some monsters.

1. I have a bit of a fascination with any of the tales of Baba Yaga.
2. Once upon a time I got a new phone that was my favorite thing.

Russia‘s Christmas Witch. Very similar to Belfana, but each rendition is a bit different. I loved the art of the tagged one. It felt classic. ❤️

I would read this book aloud to a middle school classroom and incorporate lessons after on different types of families.
This realistic fiction book is about an orphan, Mary, and her journey on getting out of her orphanage. The first chapter is when Mary gets the idea to escape through the stove pipe, and gets caught in doing so. I think this book is a good friction as to how children in orphanages May feel.
