Ashley, age 11

Responds to the Russian folk tale Baba Yaga:

Why did the gates, the servant girl, the big dog, and the thin black cat help Natasha escape?
Ashley: They helped because Natasha gave them food and a kerchief.

Why did Natasha's small gifts mean so much?
Ashley: Because they had not had something to eat or use in a long time.

Comments?
Ashley: The story is funny and sure to get a laugh out of it!
