Tales for Tadpoles
A story of friendship and faith. Varenka lives contently in her cottage in the woods, until passersby warn her that war has broken out. Pack up a bundle and come along with us. But Varenka can’t leave. Who will care for the children who wander and get lost in the forest? Who will shelter the animals and feed the birds when winter comes? Soon, Varenka shelters a young artist, an old farmer and his goat, and a lost child. And each night she prays for a wall to be built around her house to protect her from the soldiers who draw nearer with each passing day. Time is running out until Varenka notices a gentle sound all around
 the house. Snow. Could it be enough to save them? Bernadette Watts brings this timeless story to life with its message of courage, compassion, and faith. Format: Hardback
