The Making of Baba Yaga: What makes you peculiar when young becomes your power when grown

By M.E. Baba Yaga and Cyber Leshy

What makes you peculiar may be the root of your power.

Before she was the fearsome witch in the chicken-legged hut, Baba Yaga was a peculiar child.

She saved worms from puddles.
Spoke with her grandfather's ghost.
Honored bones and beasts.
And carried strange knowing about things not yet come.

The Making of Baba Yaga is a beautifully illustrated origin story inspired by Slavic folklore, reimagining one of mythology's most mysterious figures as a strange, sensitive child growing into her power.

This empowering tale gently explores:

- self-acceptance
- empathy
- intuition
- emotional resilience
- belonging
- honoring what makes us different

Perfect for:

children ages 6-12 who love folklore, fairy tales, and mythology parents raising sensitive or unconventional children teachers exploring emotional growth and belonging lovers of Baba Yaga and Slavic-inspired storytelling

Because the children called strange today may become the wise ones tomorrow.

Step into the forest.
Sit by the fire.
Hear how Baba Yaga began.
