A lovely retelling of the traditional Russian folktale “Teremok”, which translates to “little hideaway”, to help celebrate the beginning of Folktale Week on Instagram.
Delightfully bright illustrations, brilliant from end paper to end paper, will captivate you and your little one throughout this story of a little hidden wooden house, with nine neat windows and a red front door, and the animals who make it a home. All are welcome until a great big bear comes along…
Wonderful for all ages, it’s my own little one’s favorite book to end our nightly bedtime routine. The well paced prose and sweet story will cap off any evening perfectly.
Crossing my fingers this will help us get an early bedtime tonight and maybe I can sneak some time in the art room to finish my own submission for today’s Folktale Week prompt.









Photos of our own well loved home library copy but it’s also available through our local @midyorklibrarysystem and hopefully through yours, too!
