About This Book
A generous quiltmaker who lives in the mountains gives her beautiful quilts only to those in need, never to the rich. When a greedy king demands one for himself, she agrees - but only if he gives away all his possessions first, one by one, leading him on a transformative journey from greed to generosity.
Why We Love This
The illustrations are lavishly detailed and the message about the joy of giving is powerful without being preachy - this is one of those books that stays with children long after they've grown.
