A wonderful book for all those interested in Ukrainian folk magic and witchcraft. Don’t be discouraged that it is written in Ukrainian. I find that in this wonderful age that the google translate app does a great job. When I don’t know a word or am having trouble translating a sentence I just hold up my phone and it live translates the page. See my pics to see how well it works!
