Blog Tour - The Story of Babushka
A beautifully illustrated book, with a magnificent story that children and tweens will love.
Babushka wants to find out the meaning of life so she sends her bodies out of the forest and into the world to search for answers.
WHAT IS A BABUSHKA?
The babushka doll, also known as a matryoshka or Russian nesting doll, is a traditional Russian toy first made over 100 years ago. The doll has come to symbolise Russian folk culture, as well as the complex and beautiful layers of women. There are some babushka dolls with as many as fifty dolls nested inside. This is the story of one very special babushka doll and her five bodies. There was the outermost body, Antonia. She was pure beauty. Everyone who saw her admired her good looks. Beneath that body of beauty hid Loretta, who was richly adorned. She wore gold ornaments, and her green robe was decorated with many different gems that glittered like the ocean on a sunny day. Hidden within the rich body was Paula, the body that held all Babushka's talents. Whatever Paula did, she was sure to succeed. She knew how to work and always did so with joy and determination. Within the talented body was Viola, the body of wisdom. Viola knew a lot about the world and learned very quickly. She was always full of brilliant ideas and had clever solutions for every problem. The last body, the smallest of all, was Mary, the embodiment of love. Mary had a warm and compassionate heart and was very helpful. She could dry tears and mend broken hearts. Together, these bodies formed the complete Babushka.

- The value of friendship and love.

It all started when Babushka pondered what the meaning of life was... so she set out on a journey of discovery, letting each part of her Babushka go in search of answers and most importantly to help people.
Babushka was made up of :-
Antonia ( for her beautiful outer appearance - she went first)
Loretta (for her wealth, she was next to leave)
Paula (for her talents , was third to go)
Viola (for her Wisdom, was the last to go)
Mary ( heart & inner voice - who was left behind)
Although they all quickly discovered that their kind heart, beauty, wisdom, wealth and talent was to be exploited for gain, greed, misery and power, only for each of them to be disregarded, used, undervalued and left them feeling low and unloved.
Babushka learned some valuable lessons along the way, she learnt that never to undervalue her self worth and respect, money isn't everything it just leads to greed and having money alone doesn't complete you as a whole, not to let other people's ideas cloud your judgement and stand up for what you believe in and the value of love, friendship and working together.
Babushka is a beautifully illustrated story with many important themes to learn from.
I loved how in the end they all came together to work as one.
Children will love this book, it's relatable, the chapters are nice and short, the story is thought provoking, very compelling and thoroughly entertaining, it's one of those books that will easily become a treasured book for years to come.
