About
the Book
Little Sister is very busy doing all the work
around the house and the yard. But she doesn’t mind: she sings and hums,
and she grows prettier and prettier as she does her chores. Her wicked
stepmother and stepsister can’t stand the fact that Little Sister is so
happy. One day, they tell Little Sister to bring home violets in the middle of
winter—or not to come home at all!
How Little Sister gets help
from the Month Brothers in the forest offers a delightful twist on this Slavic
version of Cinderella.
