Natasha wasn't really a bad girl. She just had no patience. And she didn't want to wait for things to be done for her by her grandma (called "babushka" in Russian) even when her grandma was very busy.
"Babushka, please stop doing the laundry and push me in the swing!" - Natasha would say. "My precious one, " Babushka would answer. "I must hang up these clothes while the sun is shining."
But Natasha didn't want to wait. "Now, now, now" - that was her favorite word, until she heard the magical doll that grandma gave her say the same word, in the same selfish way, to Natasha, this time giving orders to the little girl herself...
