A review by marci_travels
Vasilisa by Julie Mathison

5.0

This is a young adult/advanced middle grade book full of rich story telling and lavish detail. We meet many of the characters from Russian fairy tales: Baba Yaga, the ruskali, Prince Ivan, Koshchi the Deathless, and of course Vasilisa. The story weaves 1919 Edenfall Pennsylvania and Old Rus together to build a story that enchants and provides excitement. Really just a delightful story that remains long after the last page is turned.
