Description:
|
Almaz hates to wait for anything. It has been a year since her mother died, and she wants her father's new wife to love her right away. Her wise grandfather promises to tell her how to win her stepmother's affection, if she will bring him a handful of hair from the tail of a lion. As she gains the trust of the lion, she also becomes close to her new stepmother--one step at a time. Full color.
