Quiltmaker's Gift

The truth behind this story is that giving is better for your happiness than taking. The story itself is full of fantastic read-out-loud folkloric vignettes and written in such a way that makes me feel like a storyteller.[return][return]The illustrations are incredibly rich and unlike most of the time, are as beautiful as I imagine them. There is a lot of detail, something that children can spend time looking at.[return][return]This is also a fantastic gift for quilters. Knowing how much time goes into a hand-made quilt, it's a good way to show that the creation is understood to be greater than the fabric its made from.
