While the Christmas legend is the most traditional "good story," there are several other notable works that feature a "Babushka" figure:
: A children's book by Carola Schmidt that tells the heartwarming and historical tale of a grandmother's escape from a prisoner of war camp in Siberia.
: A powerful documentary story about elderly women who returned to their homes in the radioactive exclusion zone of Chernobyl, showing immense resilience and love for their land.
