Preview: Hear it

Old Babushka, known throughout all of Moskva for her beautifully painted eggs, is preparing her eggs for the Easter Festival when she takes in an injured goose. She names the goose Rechenka, and they live happily together until one day when Rechenka accidentally overturns a basket, breaking all of Babushkas lovingly crafted eggs.But the next morning Babushka has a surprise awaiting her in the basket. She cries: A miracle! It is one of many in this charmingly told tale of friendship and caring.With vibrant illustrations, Patricia Polacco has joyously recreated the flavor of Old Moscow and its festivals. The eggs, stunningly colored and intricately designed, are authentic reproductions of eggs painted in the Ukrainian style. Rechenkas Eggs is a timeless story of classic beauty.
