Summary

It started with a bang. 
 
No, a slap. 
 
My mother's head hit the floor. My father stood over her. 
 
We had to get out. If we didn't, my dad would kill her. 
 
So, we ran. My mother dragged me out of the house in the middle of the night. 
 
Where will we go? 
 
How will we survive? 
 
There's nobody who can take us in, except for my grandfather...
 
...and mom hates him more than dad. There's no way we could wind up there, right? 
 
If you love coming of age stories, fantastical adventures, family drama, and heartfelt romance, you'll love this book.

    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 symbolize Russian folk culture, as well as the complex and beautiful layers of women. 
This is the story of one very special doll, with five bodies that form the Babushka. : There was the outermost body, Antonia. She was pure beauty and everyone who saw her raved about her good looks. Beneath that body of beauty hid the second body, Loretta, who was richly adorned. She wore gold ornaments, and her 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 the talents. Whatever Paula did, she was sure to succeed. She knew how to work and always did so with joy and determination. Under the shell of 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 innermost and smallest of all, was Mary, the embodiment of love. Mary had a compassionate heart and was very helpful. She had the special ability to dry tears and mend broken hearts. All these bodies together formed the beautiful Babushka.
