"The Quiltmaker's Gift" by Jeff Brumbeau
For the Young and Young at Heart. What a great fable about giving!
A quiltmaker, with magic in her fingers, is very generous as she sews quilts and gives them to the poor and needy in her town.
A greedy king tries to force the quiltmaker to sew him a quilt, thinking that it will be something that will make him happy; because his storehouse of treasures does not make him happy.
Just like the quiltmaker sews her quilts, read how the author and the illustrator craft this story to find out what happens when giving becomes the king's focus.
For quilt lovers and fairy tale lovers, this is truly a keepsake!
