If you want a more modern version of Vasilisa the Beautiful I would definitely read Vassa in the Night. She holds the key to Vasilisa’s success in the artistic world, and failure would destroy her chances of career success (maintaining the threat within the character, but in a less cannibalistic sense).The Father (aka the doll that is the Mother’s Blessing), will be an experienced artist.

However, the ending came abrupt and seemed rushed – what a pity!Weird folk tale. I think I am definitely going to be reading more of the original Russian folktales in the future.Classic children's story. (I wish I could read it in its original Russian. I didn't like the font and general layout of the book and there weren't enough pictures in my opinion. When Baba Yaga discovers the Blessing she is is furious, having an aversion to such charms. Since I was a kid, I used to watched "animated" russian tales and I have always thought these tales are awesome. Maybe it just didn't translate well...A beautifully creepy fairy tale. A girl's coming of age tale--with Baba Yaga and glowy skulls! Even so, the English translation is no less lovely).
