Usborne Book - The House with Chicken Legs

The House with Chicken Legs – an English-language book with a magical story
The House with Chicken Legs is a moving story about Marinka, a girl who dreams of an ordinary life: friendship, peace and the feeling that she decides her own future. The problem is that her home is not ordinary – it stands on chicken legs and can move off without warning.
Marinka is the granddaughter of Baba Yaga, which means she carries a unique heritage. However, the girl wants to find her own path, even if tradition, family and the house itself have completely different plans for her. This book for school-age children combines a fairy-tale atmosphere, adventure and an emotional story about identity, courage and the need for acceptance.
It is a title that works well both as a valuable read for a young reader and as an interesting product for the offer of bookshops, gift shops, educational toy stores and children's goods retailers.
