Natasha isn’t really a bad girl. It’s just that she wants to play on the swing “now,” not after the laundry is done. She wants a ride on the goat cart “now,” not after the wash has been hung up to dry. And she wants her soup “now,” not after the goats have been fed. Looking after Natasha keeps Babushka, Natasha’s grandmother, very busy.
