Found abandoned in a bear cave as a baby, Yanka has always wondered about where she is from. She tries to ignore the strange whispers and looks from the villagers, wishing she was as strong on the inside as she is on the outside. But, when she has to flee her house, looking for answers about who she really is, a journey far beyond one that she ever imagined begins: from icy rivers to smouldering mountains meeting an ever-growing herd of extraordinary friends along the way. Interwoven with traditional stories of bears, princesses and dragons, Yanka's journey is a gorgeously lyrical adventure from the best-selling author of The House With Chicken Legs.

小時候被發現被遺棄在熊洞裡，Yanka 一直想知道她來自哪裡。 她試圖忽略村民們奇怪的耳語和目光，希望她內心和外表一樣堅強。 但是，當她不得不逃離她的家，尋找關於她真實身份的答案時，一段她從未想像過的旅程開始了：從冰冷的河流到陰燃的山脈，一路上遇到了一群不斷增長的非凡朋友。
