Staff Pick

This is a captivating tale of a young girl's encounter with the wicked old witch who lives deep in the forest. A spine-tingling read that delivers just the right amount of suspense without being too scary. Bony-Legs is based upon the Russian folk tales of Baba Yaga and is great to read aloud.
