Thursday night my husband brought me a new book — well new to me. The Patchwork Quilt by Valerie Flournoy with pictures by Jerry Pinkney. Published in 1985 by Dial books for Young Readers, the summary says:
Using scraps cut from the family’s old clothing, Tanya helps her grandmother make a beautiful quilt that tells the story of her family’s life.
The Patchwork Quilt is the 1986 Coretta Scott King Award Illustrator Award Winner.
I really enjoyed the book.
I had to go to Amazon and buy me a copy. I like to read books like this one too. Nice of Ted to find it for you.
Precious!
