Description
Piri is a city girl, but every year she goes to visit her grandmother Babi on her farm in the country. There is a lot that Piri finds strange, even scary, in the village where Babi lives, especially the ghost in the form of a rooster who supposedly haunts the cemetery. But above all Piri loves country life. During her time with Babi, Piri learns lessons that will stay with her all of her life, about the importance of honest hard work, of caring for the less fortunate, and of having the courage to stand up for those who cannot stand up for themselves. The nine stories in this book were inspired by Aranka Siegal's own experiences with her grandmother in the Ukrainian village of Komjaty.
