It is about a selfish king who wants presents and gifts from everybody. The one present he can’t have is a quilt from the lady in the mountains. She only makes quilts for people who can’t afford them. She tells the king give of yourself and I will make you a quilt. The king will not do this. Instead, he punishes the old lady and in turn just punishes himself. This book does have a happy ending and is simply lovely. The illustrations are classic, and so is the story. I see this book being handed down from “maker to “maker as they share the love conjunctions. ( ) This book is an excellent read for all ages. This book about a greedy king and a kind old women prove to us that money cannot buy happiness. There were many things I enjoyed while reading this book. First, I enjoyed the illustrations. The book was so detailed with colorful lines and shapes as the quilt maker sewed her quilts. The As the book goes on, there are small images on each page previewing what is happening next. Each page as so many beautifully drawn images that make the characters look realistic. The second thing I enjoyed was the, characters. The characters were believable and well developed. The author did a great job at making two opposite characters come together to do good. The last element that made this book such a great read was the lesson learned. Throughout the book, you question how a kind old women could keep her word to such a nasty king. In the end, you realize that it is what is inside that matters and happiness is worth the most. Genre: Modern Fantasy Age Appropriateness: Primary Media: Watercolors Review/Critique: A gifted quiltmaker sewed many quilts, but she would never sell them for she only gave them to poor people. The quiltmaker even told the unhappy king she would not make him a quilt until he gave away all of his things. Piece by piece the quiltmaker made the king a quilt as he gave away all of his possessions. Once he had given away of his things, he was happier than he had ever been because he had helped people. This is good fantasy because the quiltmaker would not be in the clouds nor would her quilt fly. Also, the bear would not have freed her, instead the bear would have attacked her.
