Baba Yaga

"You do realise you're the only item on the menu, don't you?" hissed a soft voice behind Natasha. "Baba Yaga just lives to eat sweet little girls." Natasha turned around. A terribly thin black cat came out of the shadows. "Well, I knew she wasn't very nice," said Natasha with a frown. "And I can see she doesn't feed you much, either. Here, have my last few scraps of food." "What a kind you are!" said the cat, surprised. "You know, I might be able to help you..."(pp.14-16)




Once upon a time, there was a little Russian girl called Natasha. Her mother had died, but she and her father were very happy until he got marry again.  One day her stepmother told Natasha she had a special job for her to do. So, she headed towards the dark wood to meet Baba Yaga and borrowa needle and thread. Baba Yaga loved to eat sweet little girls. However, she could run away from Baba Yaga because a dog and a cat helped her.



I think that being kind to everyone is very important for us.
