About this product

Product Information

Finding Baba Yaga is a mythic yet timely novel-in-verse by the beloved and prolific New York Times bestselling author and poet Jane Yolen, "the Hans Christian Andersen of America" ( Newsweek ). A young woman discovers the power to speak up and take control of her fate--a theme that has never been more timely than it is now... You think you know this story. You do not. A harsh, controlling father. A quiescent mother. A house that feels like anything but a home. Natasha gathers the strength to leave, and comes upon a little house in the wood: A house that walks about on chicken feet and is inhabited by a fairy tale witch. In finding Baba Yaga, Natasha finds her voice, her power, herself.... "Jane Yolen is a phenomenon: a poet and a mythmaker, who understands how old stories can tell us new things. We are lucky to have her."--Neil Gaiman

Reviews
"Jane Yolen is a phenomenon: a poet and a mythmaker, who understands how old stories can tell us new things."--Neil Gaiman "This novel-in-verse is a journey, an escape, and an encounter with an ambiguous evil. Tart and touching and sometimes deeply sad, with surprising stings of wit."--John Crowley "This is a Worm Ouroboros of a story, the old made new, the new made old, metaphors rubbing shoulders with painful truths. A book-length poem, Finding Baba Yaga is no gimmick but rather the only way the story could be told to deliver the impact that it does."--Charles de Lint "Seductive in the best way possible, Finding Baba Yaga draws you in from first word to last, its secrets doled out like sweet treats.... If you've never met Baba Yaga before, it's time. If you think you have, be assured: not like this." --Nikki Grimes "Blending Russian folklore with a contemporary American teen's narration of her departure from an abusive family situation, Yolen's ( Monster Academy , 2018, etc.) entry into the Baba Yaga canon packs an emotional punch. ...Yolen's wordplay is sharp, engaging, and evocative; even folklore-illiterate readers will be enchanted by this slim volume." -- Kirkus Reviews "Yolen has created another magical tale...with her exquisite free verse. ...It is a heart-breaking story with little slips of humor. It is a terrifying story of abuse and an inspiring telling of becoming one's own heroine. Here is yet another amazing book to be added to the over 300 this wonderful author has all ready [ sic ] brought to us."-- TeenReads " Finding Baba Yaga is a unique experience. It is so many things wrapped into one; a fairy tale, a twist on the classics, a novella, and a story told in verse. It's also a coming of age story, and a story about acceptance. It's not every day that you can find something so small and compact that carries that much within it. For that reason alone I would say that Finding Baba Yaga is worth reading."-- Word of the Nerd, "Seductive in the best way possible, Finding Baba Yaga draws you in from first word to last, its secrets doled out like sweet treats . . . . If you've never met Baba Yaga before, it's time. If you think you have, be assured: not like this."--Nikki Grimes, New York Times bestselling author of Words with Wings "This is a Worm Ouroboros of a story, the old made new, the new made old, metaphors rubbing shoulders with painful truths. A book-length poem, Finding Baba Yaga is no gimmick but rather the only way the story could be told to deliver the impact that it does. Jane Yolen is a National Treasure and you don't need to go any further than the pages of this book to understand why."--Charles de Lint "Even after an astounding number of books written, Jane Yolen finds new things to say and new ways to say them. This novel-in-verse (when was the last time you picked up one of those?) is a journey, an escape, and an encounter with an ambiguous evil. Tart and and touching and sometimes deeply sad, with surprising stings of wit."--John Crowley, "Seductive in the best way possible, Finding Baba Yaga draws you in from first word to last, its secrets doled out like sweet treats.... If you've never met Baba Yaga before, it's time. If you think you have, be assured: not like this." --Nikki Grimes, New York Times bestselling author of Words with Wings, "Jane Yolen is a phenomenon: a poet and a mythmaker, who understands how old stories can tell us new things."--Neil Gaiman "This novel-in-verse is a journey, an escape, and an encounter with an ambiguous evil.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
